Years ago Canon reckoned when sensors reached 10mp that would be equal in IQ to film. Whether that is true or not I do not know but I cannot understand this mad mp race (apart from marketing) as the detail available will merely show up optical defects in the lenses. I do wonder if some people ever stop looking at photos at 100% or greater and actually look at the image as a picture. Some of the great pictures in the past would fail dreadfully at the pixel peeping level but are never the less great pictures. There that was a good moan, feel better now>
