The m43 'system' is well worked out to optimize the image, and often outperforms the larger sensor cameras because of this. As someone pointed out, 'cropped' is an incorrect term; 'different format' is the right one, and as always, there is no right format for everything, and different formats all have their places. As the digital sensors get better, smaller formats can deliver quality that larger ones couldn't earlier. I use various formats in digital as I have in film, and I'm certainly not going to trash the smaller ones. In fact, with recent releases of cameras and lenses I'm using smaller formats more.
