I was not making fun FF on that thread. I wasn't even bagging on it. It just floored me that the guy who carries that much gears knew nothing about Pentax. That was all.
I have always been a proponent of FF, except now that I have seen the pics of 645D, my thinking is changing. I think I am going for 645D.
Many people who buy FF cameras do so not because of all the advantages and bells and whistles. They buy them because they can afford them regardless of how suited or not so suited FF is for their purposes. By your logic, people in most cases do not even need DSLR's. The thing is that what you are saying is probably true. But, in the end, consumers blow their dough any way they want to. That is what consumers do.
And, most of all, we love talking about it. At least I do. That is why I am here, and I figure that is why many other people are here as well.
Sure, it is perfectly within your rights to laugh at people like us, but you don't necessarily have to share that on this particular thread. I just don't think it is needed. That is probably why I am the only dumb ass who is giving you a hard time . . .
I have no aspiration as a photographer. I truly suck. Of all people, I am the one who needs a beast like 645D the very least. My true aspiration lies in becoming the best pediatric intensivist/cardiologist that there ever was . . . . .
