What is the difference in film-making that makes professional films
look professional, and home movies look so amateur (like on America's
Funiest Home videos)?

I don't mean camera movement, or bad-lighting, but rather about
something fundamental with the technology used. Is it the lens quality?
Or is it 8mm film versus whatever the cheap-looking home movies are
filmed in?
