What with all these 40-50-100? megapixel bodies being announced; I feel totally
antique ( age wise I am ).

My house is not big enough to hang the prints from such high megapixel cam prints..to do full justice to them.

They surely must satisfy some user's needs ( why else manufacture them ), even if it is just to talk about them.

For me, even 10.3 mp is good enough for the photographs I take and the A3 size which is my max print size.

Details? I get plenty. For my eyes. That's what matters to me.


Speaking for me only, I better try to improve my photography by taking my 10/12/16 mp cams and see if I can use them to their max. I do not understand the high megapixel lingo anyway.

Rayyan,

so the obvious solution is you need a bigger (much bigger) house first and then you can go for higher MP cameras :D - just kidding! Same is true for me and I guess most others here!

Peter thanks for stopping by.

On my pension, cannot do either. Waiting for oil to go up
and maybe afford ramen.

Best wishes.

LOL! I still have my R-D1. Lovely camera but only produces 6mp images.. Of course, the M240 has a larger sensor. I think the larger megapixel sensors are just part and parcel of the technological advances that are being made. Surely they help the marketing of the products...

A great piece of advise to be sure... A much bigger house would surely accommodate larger prints :thumbup: But as you say, most of us here are probably in the same position. Still, it's nice to be able to make those large prints should the occasion arise ;)
