That's why charts are for people who don't take into consideration the shooting conditions (the available light, the quality of it, etc.) and they think that a chart represents a valid argument to a photographer.
A chart is as valid as the fuel consumption written on cars specifications (you know that on paper your car will take you 6l from the gas tank for every 100km, but you need to drive on a flat road, without AC, you have to be alone in the car, without luggages and you have to drive with constant speed in order to achieve those 6l/100km).

Originally posted by ThorSanchez Interesting, thanks. Have you ever seen a pro sports photographer using Pentax? Has anyone?
I saw one, in Romania. He is a pro given the fact that he is living from photography, but he shots only local events in a small town and his main income comes from weddings.
I don't think I saw more than 3 Sony A9 either this year at some international sport events I was attending despite the marketing behind Sony and despite the fact that Sony has some Pro lenses (the f2.8 trinity, the 400mm f2.8 and a 600mm f4) for the A9 which is a very capable sport camera.
