Every now and then, I take a pause from using my almost magically-competent, performing and engaging Canon RF gear - an experience that almost touches perfection - and drop by threads like this one to have a good laugh.

I am always left wondering: Is it more tragic that people will never know what they could be benefiting from or that they seem so unsatisfied and frustrated with what they use that they have to start this kind on nonsensical, sad, sad "discussions"?

I am glad that you enjoy your lenses and I believe many do but that was not the topic. I am looking ahead and try to figure out where we are in 5-10 years as Canon owners. Canons L-glass has always been pricy but "reachable" for many - but now the prices are just insane and I think it will just continue on that road.

Clearly it must be OK to question this if Canon is "forcing" us to only buy their glass when it is time to upgrade? This thread literally exploded so I think it's worth a discussion.
