But what about the 645D?

[Paul Stenquist]

Large format digital backs won't always be too expensive. I can see a 
tiled back of APS-C sensors selling for less than 2K in a couple of 
years.
BTW, I didn't say ALL pros use digital large format. I said "they've 
been used by pro shooters for many years." Obviously, people who make 
their living from photography come from a wide spectrum that ranges 
from wedding shooters scratching out a living at bare sustenance levels 
and fine-art photographers who have to struggle to make ends meet all 
the way up to big-name commercial shooters who count their income in 
millions of dollars. And of course fine art photographers shooting 
large format are probably all shooting film. Although there are a few 
commercial shooters who also practice fine-art photography. Some quite 
successfully.
