No you haven't....

I've talked about and posted images I have shot with a Canon, and also deep sky images shot with highly specialised astrophotography cameras. Altho I normally shove them in the general photography thread.

^^^^^ i can tell

Right.... for me.... a camera is a camera. Irrespective of what it is attached to. Doesn't matter if its a phone, a compact, a bridge, a box with a hole innit, a DSLR, mirrorless, full format, a fecking go pro!!!

They all do the same thing.... capture a moment in time.

But the crucial part is not the tool.... it's the person wielding that tool. You can have all the gear but if you do not have that creative spark.... the so called eye for it. Then the outcome will be what it is....
