I agree with much of what has been said. Great results can be achieved by APS-C with proper exposure and skill in both composition and post processing.

Another fact, possibly even more important, is the really dedicated photographer makes the opportunity for great shots by being in the right place at the right time. Getting up before dawn and waiting for the right light for several mornings until it gives the effect you want, watching weather forcasts and gettting to the location for the storm that will give the clouds and lighting that makes the great photo, catching the skiff of snow on a canyon at dawn, etc. are examples of what the expert/professional does to make the truly spectacular shot we are really impressed by.

Sometimes the rest of us "luck into" such conditions but these guys oftem put a lot of effort into getting into position to increase their odds.

Great point! Last spring we were in the Smoky Mountains National Park. The Cades Cove area (gate) opens at sunrise. If you're not there at sunrise, in my opinion, you're missing the most beautiful part of the park. Simply amazing. And, surprisingly, there were only about 10 cars in line at the gate at sunrise each day (all smart photographers)! I feel bad for the typical tourist who didn't arrive until 8 or 9 am. Most often, the fog has lifted by then and the most amazing light is gone.
