No, I'm saying you apparently don't and can be picky about whom you work
for. Or, perhaps, you have made different lifestyle choices.
Clients don't have any special insights, but do have deep set images, fed by
movies and tv and camera companies advertising, about what professional
photographers use. If they see you using what they assume to be an amateur
camera, they won't lie your work or hire you again.
My friends experience was a full time commercial shooter, not someone
selling pretty sunset pictures at art fairs. That probably means something,
too.
