Film shows fall off at these apertures with those lenses too. > > Another example, this one on a EOS 3, with the EF 28-105 f3.5-4.5 USM II > wide open at 28mm on Acros 100: > > http://www.flickr.com/photo_zoom.gne?id=85917538&size=l Oh wait that's what you are trying to show here (I can only guess, I don't have nor want a flicker account)... So, is a cropped sensor better than film too? I'm with Rob and Cotty on this. There's way too much nit-picking about the supposed quality loss with the large sensors for the reaons Rob stated. But also, just as Rob stated, it is so much easier to deal with these issues in RAW processing. I really don't know what the big deal is. If I cared about wide angle lenses, I'd want the "full-frame" sensor. And, for this list, the question is moot. Pentax errrr Samsung is commited to the APS-C or whatever sensor, just as Nikon is. And that isn't a bad thing as long as Pentax is able to sell and develop their products. Christian
