Yes, I accept that. With better AF, you'd get more in focus shots than you're currently able to achieve in certain situations. But some will still be out of focus. To me, that's an incremental improvement... valuable, no doubt, but hardly transformational. You still get great shots right now with your existing body - or if you don't, an improvement in AF performance isn't going to change that significantly.

Sure I do
And why not? The image quality from my K-3 and K-3II is fantastic, and they do everything I need. The rest is up to me. I'll probably stick with them for as long as they're operational, and replace them when they break.
I'm perfectly happy shooting my two old 10MP "K10D clone" Samsung GX-10s, and they're eleven years old... My *ist DL and GX-1L are a little older still
