Sometimes even a smartphone is sufficient. -- Alfred Molon Olympus E-series DSLRs and micro 4/3 forum at http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/MyOlympus/ http://myolympus.org/ photo sharing site |

That excuse really died five years ago. People "need" what they want to think they need. As I posted earlier, I will frequently take a major crop and blow it up to 12 x 18, or 16 x 20. The small format would not make me happy. If I was physically capable, I would probably use MF, but I am not, so I go as large as I can handle. There will come a time when I can only handle smaller sensor cameras, but that time has not yet arrived. Since you are happy with a small sensor, great. But please don't try to impose your standards on me. -- PeterN |

People "need" what they want to think they need... Well said. I made a big print as a gift this past Christmas .. Cheetah portrait, slightly larger than life size .. and more recently, I did a very heavy crop so as to identify a bird species - pic wasn't great, but it served its purpose - and in retrospect, the crop effectively made it a 5000+mm equivalent while (supported) handheld, which far exceeded my expectations. -hh |
