Which is perfectly correct but not what you originally said about
quality.

My "best" photos were taken with a Kodak Instamtic 126 film camera
because no one else was stupid enough to go where I went and no one can
get to the same place to take similar photos now.

Part of it is right place right time
Part is recognising a good picture
Part is actually taking the picture. That is where the camera comes in.
Part is having the right kit to take the picture. a fisheye is of
little help of the target is 500 yards away.

Both Canon and Nikon are good enough quality such that for 99% of people
the cameras are better than their abilities so the camera is not the
limiting factor.

99.9% I'd say. Wherest the user might be useless behind the lens, he might
take a perfectly composed image at just the right time of day / year get
it
home to find out he had it set to ISO 1600, that picture would then be
crap,
whether taken on a Nikon or a Canon, like say the camera is a useless tool
in the wrong hands again like 99.9% of photogaphers really.


Of course made up statistics never make the poster look as good as they hope
it will, for 92.8% of people anyway. ;-)

You mean 91.5345% You forgot it's the First Friday in November.
