So long for FF sensor cameras popularity. It seems that popularity of 35 mm sized sensor cameras will decline. Nikon has sold 4 times more D1X than Canon their EOS 1Ds and sales of D2X are much higher than that of 1Ds Mk II. Not to mention millions of already sold cheaper cameras with APS-C sized sensors. Sometimes I think that Canon keeps production of FF DSLR just for prestige and to keep amateurs thinking that they'll have "upgrade path" in the future. Now it seems that FF DSLRs will just remain as expensive professionals' specialized tools and will never gain any popularity among amateurs like us. FF is dead - long live APS-C! ;-)
