Larger sensor just a luxury?

Wow... that's fifteen minutes of my life I'll never get back!

I'm amazed at how many different analogies we can come up with and still the idea doesn't get across.

I think maybe OP thought he kind of like discovered that the earth is not flat and earth circles around the sun while others said no.

OP: quit smoking cannabis or at least limit the amount

Hey its hard for some to grasp medium format > full frame > DX > four thirds > cell phone sensor!

Echoing Whipser, if you're going to post a question asking for input... And 100% of the people are telling you wrong... Why are you so insistent that you are right, if YOU were the one posing the question in the first place?

I didn't ask the question about the depth of field and low light part. I was just asking if there was any other benefits other than resolution, given that depth of field, depth of field distribution, perspective and low light abilities are not factors (or at least to me).

I think you have answered your own question, but I don't agree with your views on lenses or pixels.
You just stated the advantages. If you are happy with the perspective, low light ability, depth of field and resolution(I mean fine detail not pixels). And are not printing larger than 8x10, the advantages of full frame seems a waste of money or luxury like you call it.

Just like more resolution is important for bigger print, depending on the type of photography, low light, wider view, more detail can be as important. It depends on the photographer needs.

I smoke plenty of cannabis and can understand what everyone is saying just fine. The OP is just in denial.

Copyright enfringement is condemned, but canabis use is ok? People is sentenced to ridiculous long sentences for marijuana possession and dealing everyday. The comment is out of place.

Yes. Cannabis use is okay... And no, no one gets sentenced for marijuana possession where I live. It's decriminalized and cops often don't feel like filling out the paperwork. They just tell you to take it elsewhere. Some might confiscate it and break your piece, but that's never happened to me.

Smoking weed never hurt anyone. :thumbup:

This thread is finally starting to get interesting.
Copyright infringement is stealing the fruit of someone's hard work, their livelihood. I don't smoke weed myself but I don't care if someone else chooses to do it. Despite people being sentenced for possession and dealing of marijuana, you decide which is more morally wrong.

Copyright infringement hurts the livelihood of others. Cannabis just hurts the user. Nobody ever went to jail for sadomasochism.

Cannabis just hurts the user.

There's your misconception of the night guys!

No, I am actually quite serious. Marijuana intake has never claimed a single life. Ever. There has been zero documented cases of cannabis as the cause of death in medical history. You have to smoke your several times your body weight in order to die from marijuana consumption.

I also used to smoke cigarettes. Even the good kind, Organic American Spirits. I can tell you from personal experience that since I have stopped smoking cigarettes, my health has improved drastically. From smoking marijuana (as I do on occasion) I never have any of the same coughing fits, lack of breath, or other "smoking" related problems.

I actually just had my lungs checked out the other day, and they're in perfect shape. I only smoked Cigs for 2. years, and I've smoked marijuana for roughly 5. I was also able to climb the tallest mountain in my state shortly after quitting cigs, and that was a huge achievement for me.

Also, marijuana has been used for plenty medicinal purposes to great effect. I use it to help me sleep at night specifically, as I suffer from insomnia (hence why I am still up).

This guy wouldn't be able to function or live a life without marijuana:



Didn't mean to derail the thread, and you're entitled to your opinion John. But it's also nice to be informed too.

The key here is you need to read instead of just agreeing with Big Brother, because he's always right, right?
