I would be interested if the "full frame" shooters on here could do a comparison, I suspect Paul, Genese and the Andy's have 35mm gear (I think the Andy's shoot full frame Canon?) Paul's first D3 picture had masses of apparent quality, sort of like an "X-factor" it just looks better.
Medium and large format will trounce anything for quality, medium format digital backs are silly money.
Maybe you should start a new thread.

The 5D is a great camera ... i could never go back to a camera with a 1.6 crop factor.. but then i shoot mainly landscapes and portraits which is what the 5D was made for.. when it comes to wildlife you do miss the crop factor but thats what 400mm lenses are for
the other great thing about the 5D and the mrk lll etc is they are in my opinion completely different to the lower end cameras.. they are made for versatility and creativity, i used to shoot in film and still do for b&w at times and with the right equipment there is no reason why you cant reach the quality of film.. its just down to the processing.
well thats my way of thinking im sure someone will correct me
