One of the best wedding shooters in the world uses aps sized sensors and near all his shots are low dof/fast aperture.

Having said all that, I do use FF chips.
Thanks for the tip. The only problem with that of course is that a fast aperture prime lens with good quality is worth more than the camera. So you would be investing in a system that is somewhat of a compromise, albeit a good one. I guess my point here is that even a cheaper lens gets great BOKEH with the FF size. So overall a similar cost?

Then again a fast aperture zoom lens and 5D Mk11 (or is that soon to be Mk111?) would be hard to beat.
