I am sure your maths is right as far as the D800 is concerned but I am comparing my 7D against the Canon 5D III which is far worse pixel count wise, the reps argument being that the better quality and dynamic range of each pixel in the 5D III would result in a higher quality photograph despite far less pixels over the subject.
I am just not sufficiently convinced to spend roughly £2K on a 5D III in the hope she was right! So 7D it remains until the 7D II comes out depending what that costs and offers.
For wildlife I have not got deep enough pockets or sufficient stamina for those very long and heavy lenses.
