From: "J.C. O'Connell"
As long as the megapixels arent too great, say 24MP, I dont know
why a larger sensor is more expensive to make, it should be cheaper
than a small one intuitively. limiting the resolution would keep cost
down while still allowing for many advantages of larger format sensor.
Another cool camera would be a digital version of the 6x17.
The sensor chips are made on a circular silicon "wafer". You get fewer
"full-frame" rectangles out of a given circular "wafer" than you do
APS-C rectangles.
