(Slightly off-topic...)<p>Buying computers used to be awful, back when hard drives cost $1&#x2F;MB, sound cards were a thing (Gravis UltraSound or SoundBlaster?), and Moore&#x27;s Law was going full speed (even CD-ROM drives regularly became twice as fast).  I spent months agonizing over when to pull the trigger and buy that Pentium 133.  Nowadays almost any computer is fast enough to make you happy: buy an SSD, max out the RAM, and you&#x27;ll be set for years.  Unless you&#x27;re doing high-end gaming or HPC, performance mostly doesn&#x27;t matter.<p>I&#x27;d argue that cameras are at that point now, too.  Even a high-end smartphone takes pretty good pictures, and the compact system cameras are well into the realm of diminishing returns unless you&#x27;re making your living off of wall-sized prints.  Seriously, just flip a coin whether you want to go APS-C or micro 4&#x2F;3 (lenses still matter), and buy whatever&#x27;s on sale.
