If you drive a pickup truck and a Porsche 930 your approach to driving will be different. With the truck you will give yourself more room to brake and not use your right foot to navigate traffic. With the Porsche you can leave yourself very little room to stop and can frequently move through even dense traffic with the loud pedal. Likewise, with a common SLR like the Canon Rebel the clock time can go to 200ms, so if you are trying to capture your children in motion you will try to anticipate what will happen in 1/5 of a second and time your shutter release accordingly. My comment was meant to inform seasoned users that have mastered the M that at first, their fleeting moment images will not be the same. Of course, posed, still life, studio, and abstract photography will not change with the new camera.
