I tend to agree with you in that if you want super sharp images with the latest cameras you need to invest in the latest lenses UNLESS you want to MF. In this case you wont be using the cameras for sports, wildlife or any action photos. Some can get away with this e.g. macro, (some) portrait, landscape and still life photographers. However this is pretty galling when you have spent a fortune on the latest super duper new camera.

As I and others are finding out, besides the expensive glass, more effort has to be put into taking the photo,if you want a super sharp image. Mirror up, tripod, VR off, highest quality filters, optimal shutter speed and exact focus all contribute to the maximization of the cameras capabilities.

Beginning to think it would be easier to pay someone to take my photos for me.

I missed all this I was in France on holiday but have now read it all with interest. I do miss my D300 and wish now I had not let it go when I got the D800. There are times when the FX camera and it's large heavy lenses is too much when on holiday and not taking professional pix. I have just got a as new 2nd hand Nikon V1 for £220 and am taking to Morocco for a short weeks holiday and want to record the event but at same time travel light. I will report back later but my need on this holiday are good quality snaps and this little camera is at least as good as our first early friend the D1!
