As for the little full frame fp, as you know it it's a Bayer sensor camera. The images are very good but if you want to count leaves in the distance, forget it. For me, it's greatest attributes are it's compact size and it works well with adapted lenses, in particular my M mount lenses. It's a good 'street' and people camera and focuses ok on the back screen with enlarging and peeking.

Here's a snap using the fp with a Zeiss Sonnar f/1.5 at f/1.5. It's a very narrow field of focus.

Good luck!

My back-up for when my DP3M finally dies is a Canon M-series with the Sigma 56 mm lens.

With some sharpening in Topaz Sharpen AI, the detail from this Bayer sensor  is very close to the Foveon.

DP3Mm on right

I'm hoping the FFF will be in an fp-sized body.
