        Consumers don't care about physics!  The in-camera crop
        of the smaller than nominal fullframe sensor yields on
        the memory card the same effect as cranking up the enlarger
        head to project just the cenrtal area of a regular negative.
        That cropped image is what the see and what they get. Again,
        DOF, resolution, etc are not part of my point - just that 
        the end result on the media has a longer reach.
