Years ago, when I hit what I felt were the technical limits of 35mm film, I upgraded to the 645 medium format and have never looked back. So with that experience, I knew upgrading to FF from APS-C would have a similar positive outcome, and it has.
Here are some of the reasons why I made the decision:
a) I print my best work with a 44" large format inkjet printer.
b) I often crop my RAW files significantly.
c) I tend to shoot more wide to normal and not telephoto.
d) I don't mind a bigger, heavier body because I shoot primarily with smaller/lighter prime lenses.
e) I appreciate the low light capability and improved dynamic range of the FF sensor.
f) Shooting with a 645Z would be the ultimate, but FF is IMO the best value.
With all that said, switching away from APS-C isn't for everyone and I know many reasons why it would be the wrong move for many photographers.
