I did not assume that the person also had a fullframe DSLR
and a 35mm based 400mm lens, rather that he/she would be
using alternate 645 bodies - standard & one w/ the 24x36mm
sensor. That the digital 645 and the 35mm DSLR, each w/ a
24x36mm sensor, were the objects being compared seems to be
where all this has gone awry despite my fumbling attempts to
make this clear.
