Do you ever feel your photography equipment is holding you back?
Now I know in reality I'm not going to be a better photographer just by holding a newer camera. But I can't help to think that with newer technology that certain restrictions might be lifted or made easier to get around. Do you feel the same way about technology?

Higher ISO for low light. Higher capacity sensor. Faster burst and much more. You are right that if you have mastered your current camera, a newer one will provide the tools to grow. Shoot, learn and share. It will make you a better photographer.

Do you ever feel your photography equipment is holding you back?
I thought so for the first decade or so of my exploration of photography. Eventually I wised up. Go ahead and buy the new camera though. The only way I was able to get over my gear obsession was to buy a bunch of it, and still take lousy photos.

Cameras aren't tools, they're more like boxes that light come in. I wouldn't use one as a tool. c
