Originally posted by BigMackCam I think there's a natural tendency to look outward whenever we run into frustrations with our chosen brand(s) and perceive that the grass is greener for others...
We are in agreement on that, obviously. The thing is, it's also a natural tendency to compare up, rather than down (or sideways), so Pentax shooters look at how Fujifilm and Olympus are faring, even Leica, but not Sony or Samsung (Samwho?).
Personally, I'm not that interested in new lenses anymore (I collected the FA*s and FA Limiteds I wanted, in anticipation of the K-1 arriving) but I am interested in firmware developments and new bodies. It'd be nice to see both arrive on a shorter cycle, but we all know why the hardware won't come out any faster. The firmware, though? That's another matter.
