You seem to misinterpret my comments often. A 5D would be lovely,
unfortunately
like the majority of average earners my cash flow is limited and
has more jobs
to do than I can afford, so a 5D is a long way down the priority
list. If
however Pentax produced a body of consequence it would be a lot
further up my
priority list, I'm sure I'm not the only one here with these
thoughts either.
I'm not made of money, but if I needed a 5D I'd buy one. "Needed" in
this context means "It will potentially generate more income for me
by enabling me to achieve the results I need for the work I'm doing."
There is no other priority in my acquisition of new equipment.
If your camera equipment is not generating your income, that means
buying it or any other photographic equipment is purely a hobby/
luxury/disposable income choice. At which point, why whinge about it?
Buy what you like/can afford and enjoy it. Or, if you can't afford to
buy anything new, enjoy what you have. Is it really necessary to
complain and complain and complain about something as trivial as what
memory card format a camera uses?
