99% true ;-)
But I don't agree completely. For sure, the real portraiture happens between two human beings, and when there is a lack of connection, even thousands of dollars in photo gear will not help.
I left this 1% because when you have this connection, gear may affect the visual side of the picture dramatically. Perspective, depth of field, sometimes even colors and tonality are affected by some soulless items you hold in your hands ;-)
it's 100% true what you are saying, I am also shooting with a fullframe A7II with a decent lens @1.4
Talk and talk, that helps the most in portrait photography if you ask me! I also own +/- 200 lenses, all vintage, old and cheap, and hell that 1% influences things a ton.
Thanks for your great comment @adamdo

That's why I left most of photography groups, and asked all my friends to not ask me any gear-related questions.
People spend so much time trying to find new camera body with extra 10Mpix & faster AF than they don't have anything left to go out and shoot.
@adamdo that exactly. I can work with your brain, you got a follow my friend.
