I've known a lot of people that have had really expensive high-tech cameras. Trust me, the camera doesn't make the great video. The operator behind the lens has a lot more to do with it coming out looking and feeling amazing. An operator who doesn't know what they're doing can utilize the very best camera and their footage can still look like garbage. Whereas I've seen the best operators take poor quality cameras and still make amazing videos. I understand what you meant by your comment though.

this is very helpful post
