If you are subconsciously eager to justify that the equipment should deliver what you want, then you will only see the positives; if you subconsciously want it to come off badly, then you will nitpick till the cows come home. It is not easy to be balanced and objective, though every single person thinks they are so, in reality they are a bundle of subjective prejudices (including me). In today's marketplace I know of no manufacturer who turns out inferior stuff - most digital camera systems turn out remarkably good results.
