How come my photos never look as sharp/clear as the pros even when they use less advanced cameras?
 
What kind of camera are you using?
 
Are you making sure the camera is perfectly still? Make sure you test LOADS of different angles to find the correct lighting effect too. I've seen videos of people doing photos and they take around 15 photos of the same shot in different angles so the lighting is perfect.
 
Lighting is the obvious answer.

Camera or subject motion is the next answer.

A less obvious answer is: Is the lens clean? Even an almost invisible film of oil/moisture or coating of dust can introduce unwanted haze in to a picture.

Something else to check is your exposure settings. When in doubt, put the damned thing on Auto.
