    It's common sense really, though I guess people get caught up on the tech-stats.

    A 1-megapixel camera compared to a 20-megapixel camera, obviously there is going to be a difference. Just like shooting on 8mm vs IMAX film. Seems for 90% of people, the sweet spot is around the 6-megapixel mark, anything more is kind of useless data.

    The real con imo, are these cropped sensors being used and sold in "prosumer" SLR's.

    • I prefer to have about 8MP then from there its all in the sensor and lens quality.ETM
