Quote:@ The Mad Dutchman: I didn't mean to click your profile, but glad I did. You have much more expertise than I do! I am impressed to see you have adopted the Micro Four Thirds format. I think it would be a very nice portable system, but let's face it, it ain't exactly inexpensive if you go for the native pro level lenses!
My original premise that I may as well have full frame since most of my lenses are full frame anyway is starting to crumble. I still think FF is superior on the whole, except for the fact that you either toss all your EF-s lenses, or you maintain two systems. Probably I'll eventually get a FF camera.
It's to bad about having the Mad Dutchman appellation hung on you. Maybe we could campaign for having it modified to "Eccentric Dutchman"?

I basically use both FF and MFT these days (been using MFT for 5 or 6 years now). When carrying around FF gets too much I always have the MFT system with me. The last couple of months I do have to travel a lot for work, which means the MFT system

Inexpensive it is not, but considering my FF glass, when going for equivalents, it is still cheaper, and generally a lot lighter. So far that is how I selected my glass: good and lighter than FF (apart from the stuff that came with the camera, but then, that way I also have a selection of even lighter body/lens combinations

Essentially, 4x the noise is not a problem to me, compared to the most modern FF cameras. I did make a couple of 60 cm x 90 cm prints from some of my old Canon 350D quite successfully

In the end, it is about taking pictures, and having a camera when you want to take pictures si always better than having none, plus, MFT really has come of age.
As to my nick: I carry it with pride
