- Photographically, the VERY POINT of using smaller sensors is to have more depth of field.

Hey, good points! And not the same points that I've been seeing over and over, which is VERY refreshing .
Re: the point of small sensors being to have more depth-of-field, I mostly disagree. The flip side to my argument is that you can get the same DoF with big sensors if you math right.

No. Assuming the same photograph (identical content and perspective), you can get more DOF from a smaller sensor camera. There is no flip side math that will permit a larger sensor camera to produce an equivalent amount of DOF and Solarflare makes a real good point about diffraction there. What's the crop-factor calculation to equalize diffraction?
