>>3221905It is autistic. How many lenses do you fucking need for a camera and why are you willing to settle on an inferior lens just so you can keep your aperture dial in the front and above the shutter when another brand with the aperture dial customizable in the front below the shutter makes a better lens in that focal length but maybe not in others?
Do you not take multiple bodies shooting anyway, at least sometimes? Isn't it true that some camera bodies do certain things better than others? (For example, autofocus, dynamic range, weather sealing, resolution, etc.). If I use Canon mainly, and on a given day I want to have a dedicated body for telephoto and another dedicated body for wide angle, then might it not make sense to use a Pentax for the second, wide angle body and bring along one or two compact Limited primes to keep down bulk while still having good optics?
The argument could also be made that we are in the gearfag thread right now and you're trying to make the argument that certain gear isn't worth having for arbitrary reasons. If you go to some of the other hobbyist boards on 4chan, you'll find totally different attitudes. For example,
>>>/k/36455469 the arsenal threads on /k/ are full of given collections that have many guns that take non-interchangeable magazines and non-interchangeable ammunition. Different firearms also have different ergonomics, the controls are in different places, you hold them a little differently, etc., but I never hear people bitching about that shit like I hear on /p/. God, you people are babies.
