For example, I tried using a 5D for wildlife, and I got decent shots out of it. But it was harder than with 50D or 7D and I didn't enjoy it as much.

I shoot birds with the 5DII AI Serveo all the time and get super sharp shots:

Don't forget to look at all of them in the large sizes <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />

Personally, I feel the only unique benefit you get from FF over crop sensor is the potential to achieve shallower DoF more easily, with a side helping of a small noise improvement and more detail.

Isn't it interesting how those are some of the main reasons why people upgrade from P&S/compacts to DSLRs? <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />
