This comments are familiar, I have heard them in new versions since I got my papers in late 1964. The question is if you are trying to make a picture your equipment are not up to, you may need something better, but not as a rule... What I may not be able to do digitally I may prefer to make on 4x5" film with my Linhof Teknika or even the Speed, and in the middle I may use a 6x6 cm roll-film-camera or one of the Edixa 24x36 - 135 film cameras with removable pentaprism. All have some of the most excellent lenses ever made. Now a Nikon D3100...
In short: Things are getting better in many ways, but do that guarantee us that we are taking better pictures then...?
