There are other major advantages from a 6-8mm normal lens. First of all,
DOF. Second, economy of all stuff: bodies, lenses, flashes, everything. A
5mm normal lens could be 1.000 (one thousand!) times smaller than a 50mm
(all settings camera-operated, of course). CCDs are already fast as films,
not yet as sharp, but this is a R&D matter.
The ratio (cost, weight, easiness) would be more or less the same than
between 8"x10" and 135.
Again, our OM stuff shall be the LF of the future!
