In 2008, I made a move on a new camera body. The D-70 was fine for what I was doing but the mega pixel race amongst camera manufacturers was bringing prices down so it looked like the right time. This 12.3 mp camera was great. It was nice to have more resolution and a slew of other great features but now that I had more mega pixels to work with, the D-70 doesn't look so good any longer. Now I know how photographers who move from 35mm to medium format feel.
It makes you wonder when the playing field will level out. How many mega pixels is enough. When we get to that point, I think the camera market will stabilize until the next big evolution in image capture occurs.
What do you think that might look like?
How about a camera that records a full scale image without clipping maximum whiter or maximum black for starters. The image is scaleable to any size and the detail is tack sharp.
