You have no idea what you are talking about. If you did you would notice the light and sharpness falloff around the edges of the full frame dslr.

They now have lenses to cover the full gamut with the 1.4 magnification. If there had never been 35 mm and they came out with the non full frame digital, you wouldn't even care. I've have both and there is no difference in the quality of image.

I prefer the canon lenses for speed of focus, but prefer nikon lenses for sharpness. If you're gonna spend 8k on the markII 1ds, you might as well man up and buy a medium format system for about 4k more. It shoots with a higher color range and the lenses are 10 times as good.
