You get what you pay for!
It all depends on how you're using it, Cotty, and what the client wants
in the end. If they're making 8x10s and smaller (and who does bigger
than 8x10s from the non-group shots?), what's wrong with 6MP digital?
If you know what you're doing, it looks great pretty much regardless of
what camera you're using.
I have an ME Super and an LX -- I rarely used the LX for the candids
part of a wedding. It was bigger and louder and didn't offer me
anything above what the ME Super was offering me in terms of the
finished product. The groups were shot with the 67.
What's a full-frame DSLR going to give you, as an advantage, for
weddings? Cheaper wide-angle lenses? The crop factor with less than
35mm sized sensors actually can be very advantageous when extending
those fast primes to get closer in low light.
