I really dont see why the rush is on to get a full frame sensor for 35mm. The current Sony chips used by Pentax seem to do the job for most folks just fine. How many folks need the extra size when I can make 40"x30" prints from the current sensor.
The demand is mostly from pro and advanced amateur photographers who concentrate on the wide angle end of photography. I'm one of them. I want my 24mm lens to be a 24mm, not a 36mm. I want my full-frame fisheye to be a full-frame fisheye. I don't need giant file size for my work, but I do want full-frame coverage. I've shot with the Canon and Kodak full-frame cameras and loved it. So the EOS 5D has great appeal for me.
