Are you sure about the cost of FF sensor?? If so, why the hell there is no cheaper/smaller/lighter DSLR full frame body on the market yet, something like Nikon D90 (or even unbelievable Oly OM2 from the film era) with FX sensor..? Marketing reasons only?

A sort-of-college investigated the production costs recently. He concluded production costs of less than 100$ actually and less than 20$ for an APS-C sensor.





However, just take the EOS 7D vs 5D II - we are talking about 1300EUR vs 1900EUR. In terms of total investments the 600EUR difference is, frankly, just "noise". If a potential 7D buyer really wanted he could afford a 5D II. Yet the 7D seems to outsell the 5D II by quite a margin - in Japan it does so by a factor of two.

I think the users just don't want to hassle with the usual FF bugs such as high vignetting and poor wide angles and, of course, the much more heavier tele lenses (at comparable FOV).
