Comparing cameras can be a fun exercise, and there’s nothing wrong with that. At the high end, I’m not sure there is practical value in such an exercise for most users. Changing systems is not a simple matter for most people sufficiently far along to be using or considering top-level bodies. It’s more the province of ‘specibaters’ like the people who peruse the auto magazine comparisons of Ferrari vs. Lamborghini models but are Camry drivers. I’m sure there are people at the top level who do switch, but I doubt it’s a significant number.
