As someone told me years ago… a camera is just a box to take photos….the lens does the rest.
 

Invest in a lens and don’t get sucked into buying the latest and greatest ‘box’ to take a photo. 

well, Q2 is the lens w/small box attached to it

Ten years? I think you are overstating it. True , while digital cameras might last ‘up to ten’, I bet the average consumer trades it in when the next model comes along. Q3…q4 etc…. All marketed to sound better/improved…. But really just a way to grab your $. 
 

If you want new… go for the MA… and keep it for life … or, grab a M3 or 2 or MP-4 n keep them for life too.

The MA and the like ‘is’ the Music… jazz or whatever. Glad to see you hanging on with your digital after so many years, but film is where it is at.
