Although I am truly satisfied with my 'baby' DB Aptus II 5, ofcourse I cannot help but looking at the latest of the latest....(P1 - IQ)
However, there is one factor that keeps me hesitating towards the full format sensors and that is the amount of shift possible with any given lens! Isn't there anybody out there that actually chose an IQ140 33x44 sensor over the big guns because of this?
Yes, ofcourse I realise that most (I would) would need an extra lens (HR23) which means the total cost would be roughly the same as to have chosen an IQ160 instead of the 140. So it is not really about saving money.
I also realise ofcourse that considerably more mp is a good thing, BUT, in my world 40mp would be more than enough, today my tiny 22mp is bringing my bread to the table and not once has a client commented on filesize.
Bottomline question is: Why is the larger sensorsize so attractive? What is so much better that you are willing to give up movements?
