Well, there sure has been a lot of discussion since I was by here last!
For what it’s worth, if you submit to some stock sites, your photo has to be at least 4K pixels wide, and the stock sites blow your images up to 100% and pixel peep the heck out of them. They reject the photo if any of the pixels are blurred. That experience is not much different to what dont.care described.
Sometimes the challenge is knowing when “good enough” is actually good enough and when perfection is required.
I can see using kit glass if your main work is workshops for newbies because most of them would be put off by the cost of pro gear. And, I am a huge fan of a Rebel body with a Sigma super-zoom because of performance to weight and cost. That said, I have a collection of L lenses and several of my filters cost more, each, than a P&S camera, and I have good bodies, studio strobes and several small flashes. When it is necessary to approach perfection, it is a lot easier to achieve if you have good tools.
