I agree.

As for the APS-H sensor - the only cameras that have ever had it are great heavy expensive lumps (so no size, weight or cost advantage), they need lenses designed for full frame coverage, so what's the point? I wouldn't be at all surprised if they disappeared fairly soon.

Having said that, because of the sensor technology and the relatively large pixel size, the best low-light camera available at the moment is an APS-H model - the Canon 1D Mk III. (The full frame Nikon D3 appears better until you start looking at the raw data, not the usual software interpretation of it.) However the 5D is very nearly as good, is much lighter and considerably more affordable! Compromises ...

... which brings us back closer to the topic ... every camera is a compromise in some way, what different users require vary, what I (as an individual) require varies according to the subject ... there never will be one "universal" format, there's plenty of room for several - or even many - provided they each play to their individual strengths, not their opponents'.
