i think the only place this "quest" is never ending is in the digital world. You can see endless examples of it in various equipment threads around the internet of people pouring over charts and data and simply wont touch a lens if its a few marks down on where they consider it should be. When they do find one they're too nervous to buy it because they've spent so long analysing everything to the n'th degree that they think it will be made utterly redundant in 6 months because of new gear on its way. Rince wash and repeat.
With the sort of cheap film camera you pick up from a charity shot we're just happy it doesn't have a light leak.
Some scenarios do demand the best, landscapes, macros etc some actually demand a bit of "life" in the image, some portraiture, street work etc Horses for courses.
Just to side track back on to HIFI im actually looking into getting a record player again. I miss the old hiss and crackle when pin meets plastic. And im getting all wrapped up in gear snobbery and reviews when i really don't need to be. The cheapy old player i owned in my teen years belted out ZZ Top and Brothers in Arms to a sufficient degree so why am i getting all picky now. Funny old world.
