New technology WILL appear; a full frame digital M WILL be possible as will lots of other things.<< I predict that in an effort of one-up-manship someone in the not too distant future will offer a 36mm x 25mm digital sensor, thus starting a massive paradigm shift in the concept of "full frame". When future anthropologists uncover the writings of the current generation -- all of which will be found on a tiny magnetic microdot which they'll struggle to decipher -- eras will be split into categories of WFFWFF and TLDFFWB. (When Full Frame Was Full Frame, and The Line Defining Full Frame Was Blurred). This fits with another of my predictions that in the future the need for vowels will be eliminated and people will go crazy with Acronyms. 35x25 will be considered SBTFFBSAFCFMF (Slightly Bigger Than Full Frame But Still A Far Cry From Medium Format). daveR
