My interest is in a camera that takes photos when I press the button. I don't want to spend $1000 more than every four years, so what is the point of having body upgrades any more frequently than that? The 55-300 PLM lens sounds like a real winner, so I'll purchase one as soon as I have a camera that can use it. I might like an 18-135 KAF4 better than the KAF2 version I already have, but otherwise I have no need for them to churn out new lens after new lens after new lens. What ever happened to the "glass is forever" crowd?

What kind of "speed" are you looking for?
What kind of "innovation" would improve your shooting experience?

I switched twice -
1995 from Pentax to Canon because of the EF/USM lenses
2015 from Canon to Pentax because of bodies.
It's not fun, but its not the end of the world {and I can still use my Pentax Super Program with every lens I own}.
People need to worry more about photos they can take today than about what they will be using next year.

Your last line is the important one. Why is everyone in such a hurry to spend money on new gear rather than time in the field using that gear? If the natural march of technology delivers new, useful to me, features, I'm willing to purchase a new camera, but I don't understand the seeming longing to purchase something just for the sake of purchasing it.

I don't know how you can say this. For the past five weeks, there have been at least two threads running simultaneously in the News and Rumors Section.
