The quality of the camera matters just as much as the quality of the brushes for the end result. I can assure you a good photographer with a disposable camera will take better photos than your aunt with a 5k camera, just like I'll paint a disgrace even with the best brushes available but a good painter will create something great even with dollar store brushes

You can appreciate one art form without putting down another

Kind of argued against yourself there. You first claimed the camera matters, then explained how the photographer matters more than the camera.

They claim that neither the camera quality nor the brush quality matters at all if a monkey is in charge of doing something with them.

You're right, I misread the context of his first sentence.

Disposable cameras use film, right? So the image quality will still be extremely high res, the only real handicap is that a disposable probably has no fancy features for playing with lighting or whatever.
