As an old pro friend used to say, nobody's amazed when a taxi driver
shows-up in a $30,000 car, but everyone's surprised when you tell them how
much a Hasselblad costs.
Indeed!
That's my favourite riposte, by the way: "how much does that car you drive
cost?"
On the other hand, not all of the tools you could use are as expensive. So
the question perhaps is why some tools - that do more or less the same job -
cost so much more than others.
But still: not really much, compared to what people pay for the cars they
drive in.
