Ken, if wrote "particular" or "specific" would it be more clear? I may have used an imprecise term.

Wasn't aware this was considered a 'special kind of photography' !

It stands to reason that 16x24 and 24x36 cameras are closer than it

Shhhh!!!! Don't tell Mark!!!!

Oh, hmmm, ahem, well. Let me see. My understanding is that Mark is
doing somewhat special kind of photography, mostly (daylight)
landscape and nature. This is where Sony A850 will shine with its
extended dynamic range, great many pixels and excellent color
fidelity. I also think that Mark is using top grade glass (Carl Zeiss,
etc) and a proper technique (tripod, etc). It is then most likely that
he extract the most from his 24x36 gear.

However for other kinds of photography: street, casual portrait,
travel and even for landscape some of the 24x36 advantages are not all
that advantageous, so to say. Surely and verily there is an
improvement, but its value may have been (deliberately?!) overestimated.

Just to make it certain - mine is not the case of a fox and unripened
grapes...
