Indeed, even today APS-C gives the FF a good run for it's money in terms of IQ <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' /> However, in 5 yrs time FF will also have advanced, unless of course the big guys abandon it's research and development due cost cutting or some market strategy we're not aware of today <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' /> Certainly FF has it's key applications like high ISO performance and DoF (bokeh) that FF with it's properly dedicated lenses is capable of. My point was not that APS-C has no future but rather that a lens system that is mostly APS-C oriented is limiting or might be so in the future, while a FF lens can be used for the smaller sensor cameras with no problem. Therefore you can use both APS-C and FF with the same lens set (roughly) and well, this allows for more versatility.. That's why I'll get myself an APS-C backup before my next holidays - possibly a D7000 <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' /> No reason not to drive a Mazda MX-5 and a Merc depending on the needs / fun you are after <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' /> ? Bugatti Veyron is more like for the Top Gear guys only.. <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />
