Of course, I actually do my research FIRST by reading reviews written by real reviewers who have tested the equipment and KNOW of what they speak. Reviews written by pompous, bitter old fools who pick up their poison pens to post continuous invective and bile to enthusiasts lists in response to every product announcement by specific manufacturers or review by independent reviewers I find both amusing and Troll like! Pavlov, if alive today, would surely recognize your posts as truly Pavlovian! Pavlov rings a bell Fido salivates. Leica posts a product update Colen rants and raves! F. Riper posts a review in the Washington Colen raves and rants!
