Marc,
That is pure BS. Even professionals get great
results with a package that costs far less than
your $17K. You are simply unfamiliar with the
digital world and the realities of it today. Bob is long gone from it.
I can get Rollei level quality in 16x20 with the
Canon Rebel and a Tamron 17-50mm zoom. Total
cost $1100. I know this is blasphemy to those
here clinging to the past, but it is the truth.
Well, no. A good quality printer is going to run
you a chunk of change. Rag paper and special
inks cost money. The necessary computer upgrades
cost money. And a current copy of Photoshop is
around $600 or more. So, by the time even a slim
package is in hand, it will not cost you $1100 but at least $3000 or more.
