Digital bodies are upgraded too often. Aside from financial considerations, it's time to concentrate on digital technique and not hardware. This doesn't include lenses, of course. Lenses are life. -----Original Message----- From: "John Celio" <n...@neovenator.com> Sender: pdml-boun...@pdml.net Date: Fri, 01 Oct 2010 15:00:33 To: <PDML@pdml.net> Reply-To: Pentax-Discuss Mail List <pdml@pdml.net> Subject: It ain't like it used to be.
I noticed something recently: there is not *nearly* as much discussion of new Pentax cameras as there was just a few years ago here. I remember threads going for weeks when new products were announced, but that seems to have been reduced to days or even hours sometimes. It got me wondering: Are we generally happy enough with current cameras that new models aren't worth getting excited about? Has the dSLR market reached a point where new models are pretty much more of the same, with few real innovations appearing with each new model, and thus don't warrant much discussion? Or are we all just holding our tongues until Pentax comes out with with either a 35mm-sensor'd or mirrorless body? These two camera categories seem to elicit the greatest response these days, even though we're invariably talking about other brands and wishing out loud. Just some things I've been wondering about.
