Definitely keep those lenses and buy a 5D! I'd give the 100-400 a shot
on the 5D before you give up on it.
It is one of my favorite lenses. The 100 2.8 macro is great.
With my 5D my main lens is the 24-70L, but I was very torn about getting

Use 1/250 for your rule of thumb. The cropping isn't image
magnification.

I don't see how that is possible. The exact same framed image will
result in the higher megapixel camera having more pixels in any given
area than the lower one.

The DJ130 is definitely dye. I stand corrected on the ink-type for
the 1280, which is dye. Many apologies to the list!
I switched to an aftermarket pigment on the 1280 before I gave up on
it, which was equally bad.

To provide a counterpoint to Wayne's experience...
I had an Epson 1280 that was a major clog-monster. I've got an Epson

My HP DJ130 gets up and prints every time, even after long dormancy.
I don't think this is a

Designjet 130. Lovely and inexpensive for the size. Iffy support from

Get the 5d - you won't be sorry. Even if the 6D or 3D or whatever it
is comes out soon you will not "have" to upgrade, and in any case
the 5D will hold decent value for quite a while if you decide to sell
it for an upgrade.

If you would set the list up to bounce messages back with a

Clearly you can (within reason) decouple the size of the glass and the
image circle. That's not what this debate is about... this is about
the resulting _brightness_ of the image circle.
If you reduce the size of the image circle, you get a brighter image.
