Yes you make a good point.
But if you have the need then it can be critical. A team my son drag races with just dynoed their 521 cu in twin turbo door car at over 4,200 hp.
If someone needs a very high mp camera and has the $$$ I am sure they are happy to have it.

Yes, for drag racing there is no such thing as too much horsepower (unless it is limited by the rules like size of engine in the class you are racing in). Nitromethane burning dragsters and funny cars may produce up to an estimated 11,000 HP or more out of a 496 to 500 CID blown hemi engine!

I can certainly believe you. I've been happy for years with my 14 & 16 MP APS-C cameras, but yet I have not been fully happy with my 24 MP one as sure it has more resolution for pixel peeking, but it is unacceptably noisy at higher ISOs.

Now I have something to look into on a (another) rainy day. What in the world is a PSB file. ThanksLook in the file types in Photoshop. PSB = PhotoShop Big (That is what Adobe calls them). It is right in the Save As drop down Menu where there are a dozen or more file types.

In my opinion there is absolutely no reason other than astrophotography or other type of scientific photography that 100mp would be needed by the average photographer. Waste of storage, waste of time, waste of money - but if you want bragging rights - go for it.
Yes, and imagine how much "retouching" you would have to do for female portraits at that resolution. People want attractive images not pathology skin blemish recording.

Thanks. but, right after posting that I looked into it.

If I recall correctly, the SR-71 camera system could resolve 6" from an altitude of 80,000ft, doing that while traveling at 2000 some MPH.

Yes, the tale is that they could read a license plate at 80.000 ft doing 2000 mph. It was an amazing piece of work as he had to adapt a commericial lens to that camera set up. Apparently the feds did not sell the optics... Can you imagine that piece of glass???

My 24mp Pentax KP does a great job at higher ISO values

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think these are the only two that are made specifically for the med format Fuji
GF 23mm f4 R LM WR, GF 45mm f2.8 R WR, GF 63mm f2.8 R WR, GF 110 f2 R LM WR
GF 120mm f4 LM OIS WR Macro, GF 250mm f4 R LM OIS WR
These two lenses are not avail yet. I can't remember when they are due to be released.

Jeep … when I made up that list, initially, it was of ALL Fujinon glass, currently available for BOTH formats. But, then - I realized ones with the X prefix - were for APS-C cameras, and the ones with the G prefix - were for the G series. I will give you just THAT portion, again, below, here. I have no idea which ones would be dispatched to you, immediately, upon receipt of your order, and which ones you'd have to wait on. I assume the OIS ones, might still be on the workbench, but all of the primes should be available now. That 32-64 is NOT an OIS, so, I should NOT think you would have trouble, getting THAT one!
Fujinon Prime Lenses for GFX 100S, GFX 50S, GFX 50R Medium Format MILC Cameras [6]
GF 23mm f4 R LM WR, GF 45mm f2.8 R WR, GF 63mm f2.8 R WR, GF 110 f2 R LM WR
GF 120mm f4 LM OIS WR Macro, GF 250mm f4 R LM OIS WR
Fujinon Zoom Lenses for GFX 100S, GFX 50S, GFX 50R Medium Format MILC Cameras [2]
GF 32-64mm f4 R LM WR, GF 100-200mm f5.6 R LM OIS WR

It would be useful in some birding photography - sometimes it is hard to get a small bird in the viewfinder .... if you have extra pixels, you have a better chance of 'catching' it {that is why a D850 could be more useful than a D500 .... larger 'net'}
I can see nature telephoto photography this could be a bonus but again does the average hobbyist need 100mp. I shoot with 30mp full frame and get fantastically sharp images that I can blow up quite large if I needed to.

No amateur Photographer NEEDS more than 24MP - but a little headroom is sure nice to have, eh, Daniel?
Pros, though - who shoot full page spreads - such as the ones in ELLE, I'm sure - are happy to have access to 100MP … the higher the res you have, in that arena - the more spreads you can sell ….

I'd bet that these same 'who needs that many' questions were asked by the 4 or 6 MP owners when the 1st 12 MP cameras came out

Mr Breslin , agreed. For a pro making money to make a living, probably worth the investment. But I'm a retired old guy who doesn't want to go back to work . I just like taking pictures. The gfx100 piqued my curiosity because I was in Austria in the middle of fantastic mountain scenery, but I've calmed down now .
