Ok Camera, Good Lense or Good Camera, ok Lense?

[Dao]

The camera is a recording device.

If the lens pass a bad image to the camera, the camera will record a bad image.
If the photographer capture a bad image (out of focus/badly composed/blown out highlight ...) through the good lens, the camera will record a bad image.

So the camera can only capture a good image when the image is good before the light fall onto the sensor/film.

So it's best to just hire a pro photographer ?

LOL yes and no. Sometimes, you just need to do it yourself!! And why let the pros have all the fun!!

Which goes faster...a Kia with a 500 HP engine or a Corvette with a 250 HP engine?

Probably the 'Vette, because the Kia would be in the garage surrounded by mechanics trying to figure out how to fit that under the hood.

I vote for spending your money on the best glass you can. The best camera today will be outdated next year. Glass rarely changes.

Neither.
Go with good camera + awesome lens. If you can't afford an awesome lens -rent it!

I see you only have 11 posts here. I'm not sure if that means you're new just at TPF or new to photography. If you're new to photography I would say Education. Buy some books take a few classes read, and practice,practice ,practice and know your camera inside out.

On the other hand, if you happy with your skills, go for the glass One may argue that body's become outdated but I wouldn't part with my D1's and I feel no need to get rid of my D70 anytime soon.
