Herb,
if the body prevents me from getting shots that i earn my living from,
it doesn't matter how good the glass is. there are lots of things that

Or, rephrased:
Cotty's more appealing habit is blasphemy and unnatural acts. No,
Cotty's two more appealing habits are blasphemy, unnatural acts and
surprise. Oh.

indeed it is (at least in the price levels I could afford, e.g. not
counting Canon's L-glass), nevertheless such mixed system looks quite
unbalanced to me.
Bedo.
Because Pentax glass is superior to Canon glass.
