    The forum will be moving to a new domain in the near future (canonrumorsforum.com). I have turned off "read-only", but I will only leave the two forum nodes you see active for the time being.

    I don't know at this time how quickly the change will happen, but that will move at a good pace I am sure.

Hi. I'll probably pick up a new camera next year, and am weighing up the pros and cons of APS-C vs FF. I'm curious - why is there so much interest in the 5Diii compared with a 7Dii? A 5Diii with 7D build, AF and speed would seem to be many people's dream come true. I appreciate many of the benefits of FF - shallower depth of field, less noise at higher ISOs etc. But with all of the hype, you start to think that the only benefit of the APS-C sensor is the lower price and 1.6x crop for longer lenses, but for everything else it is an inferior product. If a 5Diii was virtually identical to a 7Dii except it had more megapixels on a larger sensor, would the joys and benefits of using a FF camera really be that noticeable in the real world? Do people who have made the switch from APS-C to FF agree that it is the best decision that they've ever made and wish they had done it sooner? Or after making the change, have you been left wondering what all the fuss is about? Would appreciate your thoughts. Thanks.
