Do try to appreciate that some people actually want a high spec camera body, whether or not they will use it to the maximum of it's abilities. Not all of us shoot dead objects sitting on sidewalks. I have two dogs that can easily outrun the AF on my K10. I was sent, from another list member, a picture of a Terv at full gallop, running towards the camera. Apparently, the AF had no trouble keeping up, as the dog was tack sharp. She uses a Canon of some sort. No way in hell a Pentax would keep up to it. I don't necessarily want a full frame camera, but I would like something that can keep up with my dogs.
