the sportscar anagoly is a great one. Hell, any car. you buy a car to only drive no more than 70mph, yet even a basic cobalt can hit 120mph. same idea.

I bought a custom order 2012 SLP Camaro ZL500 and drive it back and forth to work every day. A whopping 15 minutes each way.

And I LIKE it. It makes me smile.

and that you should!!! you worked hard for it I presume..who cares if you dont 150mph in it!

I bought the a57 and its probably more camera than Ill ever need and also have the 16-50. Also, its better to have more and not need it, then less and to need more.
