Great find, and very true. I find peoples ideas on what camera gear will do is amazing. Commenting on images on flickr they will compliment the quality of the lens and sensor on an image that is only 1024 pixels square. The only thing that having full-frame will give you is narrow depth of field.
AS he comments it is much better to learn something about photography, and go out and find some interesting subject matter.

Do they? That's braindead.
"The only thing that having full-frame will give you is narrow depth of field."
Yes, that, and super-low-light capability. Though today you need special needs to really need *that* much. Pro needs.
Also admittedly Nikon D810 has much higher resolution than any M4/3 camera. But again, for special needs, only visible on meter-long prints. And you need big and expensive lenses for it.
