Thanks Frank.
So mpx's are not the factor. Just good use of the gear we have. That's a entry level camera but using a Macro lens. I've found that the camera's original kit lens focused better in Live View and could produce stunning shots too.
They do and they don't matter. For sharpness no, for print size yes. I still have my 3300 that I use with kit lenses and prime I also have a 7200.
[quote=Retina]Interesting camera. I wonder, though, why it is odd for 35mm equiv markings to be printed on a non-interchangeable lens camera."
It was/is odd because no one was doing that at the time.
" What is odd, in a good way, is that they put a relatively large sensor into an early model bridge camera. "
Odd? Yes. But it was a good idea, and a sign that someone at Sony was interested in moving the bar forward. And if I have to say it, the R1 was no D300. I think the R1 has a much more aggressive anti aliasing filter
And yes, Minolta made rather good lenses, although few that were outstanding, bu their bodies were strictly mediocre. But they could always say, "At least we're not Miranda."

Ha! I'd have to agree. I had a Miranda G in the early 70's.
Not something that instilled confidence, but it worked.
Shot one of my favorite images with it and the Miranda 105mm when I was 17.
