What makes a good photograph is, of course, a matter of opinion. Deciding on what camera to buy or use depends on the goal of the photographer. Very high resolution photographs may be produced by combining several lower res photographs or by using image manipulating software to add pixels to an existing image if the photographer needs to produce an image capable of making a very large print.
Other than out-sized printing, there is very little need for a photographer to use the top cameras in any manufacture's line. For 90% of all uses, the mid-level cameras with good optics and lenses are capable of capturing the data necessary for excellent images.
It is up to the photographer to place a capable camera in a situation where a compelling subject may be captured. It then takes another creative act to process the captured data into an image.
The camera is only 1/4 of the process: first, it is finding the subject; second, using a camera to capture; third, processing an image from the capture; fourth, reaching a receptive audience with the image.
When all four of these conditions are met, you have a photograph.
My advice for photographers is to focus all aspects of photography and use the best camera that fits their hand and bag.
