[QUOTE="Marcel, post: 379623, member: 3903"] One thing not to forget is that DX sensors weren't built to be cheaper, they were built because they just couldn't make sensors any bigger at the time they were introduced. But technology certainly has a way of improving over itself at an extremely fast rate and sensors just got bigger, and now they are getting less and less expensive to produce. But, like a lot have discovered, FX also comes with a price. Lenses are more expensive and you loose the reach of DX for sports and wildlife shooters. But don't forget that the market is a bit saturated with all kinds of other stuff people want and for a vast majority of normal human beings, a camera is just not on top of their want list. But since companies are in business to make a profit, it's their job to find the best way for them to create and feed our wants for more. Just seeing Nikon's camera body evolution and fast improvement makes me think they are trying hard to get our cash from our pockets to their bank account. It's just up to each of us to evaluate his real need versus want and decide accordingly. [/QUOTE]
