I read "headed off to Chicago" and all I could think of was to tell you to go to the original Pizzaria Uno for me. :-) .. I forgot to look at the photo! which I love and think I've seen before...  I came back "here" after reading Juan's post and his comment on the photo

Nicely done, Juan! Beautiful photos, as always, too! :D

I have many, many photos made with small sensor cameras. When I shoot with 
them, I think of shooting with my Minox 8x11 film cameras: so much DoF that you 
don't think about it, the lens is always wide open at f/3.5 (or f/5.6 in the 
case of the EC)..

You frame and expose based on the whole scene, not just the primary subject. It's a 
different mindset from the "ultra-shallow DoF" look that seems so popular in 
recent years.

Hmm. I'm headed off to Chicago for four days to conduct some business. I was 
debating on what camera to take along … don't want to carry much. Now I think 
I'll just load up a Minox and slip that into my pocket. Thanks!

I made a video about how I like cameras with small sensors. Featuring the
MX-1, Ricoh GR Digital IV and photos from the Q7

These cameras have become basically unnecessary given that we have things
like the GR with an APS-C sensor (and the 16MP GR2 is one of my favorite
cameras of all time). But I really think there's something about the images
coming out of 1/1.7" or so sensors at around 12MP that compares well with
grainy 35mm black and white film.
