Just so, Andy. Lots of grumbling. I'd take a bigger buffer and a spot meter a long, long way before I'd go for more megapixels. Hey - if your shot is under-exposed because you couldn't meter it the way you wanted, or if your shot simply doesn't exist because the buffer was full at the moment your subject did the thing you were aiming to capture (take wing, fall off the bike, kick the goal - whatever) then who cares how many extra megapixels it has? In any case, unless the extra MP are actually delivering extra resolution - which is doubtful a lot of the time - all they do is take up even more space on your flash cards and hard drives.

Wasn't it an old TV show title? Eight is enough
