Notice there are no fully cutting edge cameras?

Well, since you can't find anything to like then you might as well
commit suicide and put yourself out of your misery.

Imagine if you could design a body to fit your own criteria.

All you need is a few millions dollars.

How
about titanium based on the old Olympus OM-4 or OM-3T?

Who gives a rat's ass? Be cheaper to just buy a new camera when the
old one breaks.

How about
machined aluminum-magnesium? How about a grip customized ot your
hand? You can buy a target handgun like this, why not a camera? How
about hard anodization rather than paint?

Go for it. I see nobody stopping you.

Ah, but as I recall you're one of those "socialists" who thinks that you
should have what you want at whatever price YOU think is fair.

Sounds more like a good old fashioned low-bidding buyer in
supply-and-demand free-market capitalism to me.

Rich bitches and moans when people ask for more money than he's
willing to pay.

Buyers have to buy things for a price at which sellers are willing to
sell them, but sellers have to sell things at a price at which buyers
are willing to buy them. Otherwise, nobody's going to buy or sell
anything. His demands are part of the fabric of the free market.

And notice how many cameras are made from titanium.

Notice that the camera isn't actually made from titaium and that the
metal is only used for decoration - "finish pieces". And even that
doubles the price of the camera.
