I think this is a classic case of Nietzschean ressentement

Every choice is a compromise. Even a 1Ds Mark II would be a problematic compromise for me since it is just not slim enough and too heavy for my outdoor hiking.
...I am talking on a purely technical basis...
What?Yes, one element that has been neglected is that full sensor DSLRs with full size lenses are even larger and heavier than 35 mm camera and lens combos.
ksmattfish that puts the nail in the coffin of that argument
Personally, i feel the shots from my 5D are far superior to the shots from my 20D. I mentioned the lenses so that no one could argue they were the cause or reason.
Until you've seen a good shot on a 5D it's difficult to explain but the shot looks layered and looks like it has depth. The 20D is a great camera and while the shots were excellent, i feel the 5D is superior.
It's a larger step in quality from my 20D to my 5D than it is from my 4mp Canon A85 to the 20D - So i know it's not the resolution.
darich this is exactly what I am talking about. Your arguement is not valid at all. There are plenty of cameras better than the 5D which are not full frame. The 1DMkII and 1DMkIII is an example. The Nikon D2X is another. There are plenty of test images on the net from each. And it is just as expected too. They are top of the line cameras, with top of the line prices too.
My D200 is also much better than the D70. But it still has the same sensor. Your sentiments that the 5D is better simply because of the fact that the sensor is a few mm larger is what is false.
