I thought that a major complaint of the small sensor digital cameras was that you cannot shoot portraits with the background out of focus like you can with 35mm. So if you take 2 pictures - one with a small sensor digital and one with a 35mm from the same location (same perspective, different focal lengths, same f stop), and then print both on a say 4x6 print. Will not the 35mm shot show a more out of focus background? - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
