I'll trust (professional) practitioners over theorists most any day. I used to be a pro photojournalist and I remember "arguing" with someone over "the best camera". It was me, who has owned and used most of the best cameras and lens' available and who field tested some of the first serious pro digital bodies against a photo enthusiast who had read Consumer Reports and a variety of other reviews and had a fair amount of experience with shooting snapshots. It was ridiculous as he, a non-practitioner from a pro point of view, simply did not understand what really mattered at the highest level of use.
