Not just a 'potential' switcher

I have very little brand loyalty when it comes to anything, not just cameras. Have had just about every popular camera brand over the years apart from Canon and Pentax. Currently running mainly Olympus and Panasonic and Sony, although I still have and occasionally use a Fuji and Nikon. While my last body purchase was an Olympus, to replace a Sony, the most purchases over the last two years has been in building my Sony full frame mirrorless system. Who knows what my next purchases will be and of what brand? I certainly don't know.

Same with cars. By far the highest numbers of a single brand purchases in my life have been from Jaguar Land Rover [JLR], I do not currently own one. Had many Japanese brands and a Polish built Italian brand. Currently have a Nissan and Honda, both British made, plus a South African Ford and a current model Kia for a change, which replaced a Volvo.

Same with watches and industrial equipment apart from battery driven power tools, which for the reason that batteries can be swapped between them and I happened to buy my first one as a Milwaukee, all my growing number of such tools are Milwaukee. If I had started with DeWalt or Black and Decker or Hikoki or Makita, they would all probably be of that brand.
