But as of today, do we really have any "full frame" sensors
(as in 35mm negative size)?  I think the N*k*n and C*n*n
digital SLR conversions use smaller sensors than full frame,
hence the "telephoto" effect with normal 35mm SLR lenses.
The much discussed Siliconfilm was the only full frame
sensor that I have ever heard of, but we all know that it
will probably never see production.  Does anyone know of any
production cameras using full frame sensors?
