[QUOTE="Brusader, post: 112998, member: 12347"] The cost of manufacturing increases significantly as you create larger sensors as the silicon wafers use more power have a higher failure rate at the factory and you would need to develop another range of large lenses to utilise it. Also, a large sensor has a smaller depth of field for the same f-stop. This is why general point-n-click cameras have a infinite (everything in focus greater than ~1 metre). It's very hard to get a small depth of field with a small sensor. [/QUOTE]
