Yes and I wan to add that historicaly standard formats were quite
bigger than 35mm. In the end, the 35mm became the de facto standard
(good or bad) and now APS-C becomes standard for digital.
This is really not unexpected IMO. Now, being a good thing or notI'm
not sure really. But it follows an historical trend: people prefer
little & less quality than bigger & better quality.
I expect this to continue...
