The one thing that speaks against a significantly larger sensor is the fact that the Tokina versions of the f/2.8 DA's are not suitable for Canon 1.3x crop camera's. Surely if you jointly develop optics, the imaging circle is going to be the same? -- Regards, Lucas -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
