My Reply : I disagree with regards to full frame. As long as the corner performance of the FF lenses matches 2/3 of the performance of the APSC lenses the overall system performance of FF will be equal to or greater than the Aps performance. Generally speaking, you dont need as high a performance FF lenses for better overall system performance than apsc. Its a larger format, it has more overall lines of resolution even if the absolute line pairs/mm is lower.

Regard no AA filter, aliasing occurs when the incoming spatial frequencies are too fast for the sampling. With a high resolution sensor and cheaper lower resolution lenses, NO aliasing will likely occur. Aliasing is more likely to occur with super high spec ultra
high resolution * or APO lenses, not average or poor ones.

Cameras with no AA filter are going to separate the "men from the

lenses almost mandatory. Either that or you are going to have to
"enjoy" a lot more time in post-processing. This problem is
exacerbated by a full frame sensor which uses the corners of the image
circle that are getting cropped out by an APS-C camera. In short,
those who want a full frame DSLR are either going to have to use their
best lenses with it, or procure some.

My reply:

I keep telling that to all those funky boys begging Pentax for a full frame camera and counting on good lenses of the past they already own and treasure. Once FF will be available, you'll have to buy a whole new lens outfit based on new-generation lenses (provided they will be made available) or be satisfied with so-so performance.

That's well known by Canon and Nikon shooters, and mostly neglected among dreaming Pentaxians. In brief, putting together a Pentax FF outfit won't cost you less than switching to Canon or Nikon, the advantage being you won't have to do that all at once.
