No, no, no! You misread the signs: it's Nature telling you never to crop!
On the other hand, had you used Kodak's old Kodachrome sensors, you'd have discovered a far finer set of pixels. Oddly, the larger the format, the less noise you'd have found from those pixies... I believe that K once provided the MF and LF options too. Who says there were no Good Olde Days?
