while we try to decide which full frame to get Nikon or Canon now there is a rumor that canon is coming out with a 46 mega pixel camera.
And just when I though the megapixel wars were over.

Is it ever really over?
A few questions to ask:
Will you take better photos with the new camera, or just bigger ones?
What phot ops will you miss while waiting for the newer camera?
Will your computer freeze up from the bigger files?
(personally, I like new toys...I mean tools!)

They had no choice after Nikon introduced the D800.

I'm waiting to buy the first 100MP camera. Then I'll be able to take beautiful photographs! :D

To some bigger and more expensive is their way of seeing things. Myself I shoot with a canon T2i and get some very nice shots. Now will say I take about 100 shots to get the good one. But to me the 100 shots is the fun part.

Just remember it isn't the camera, it's the eye behind it.

Just my 2 cents

A Sensor that sensitive will be hard to use period !!! . Special glass , a speck of dust on a lens will be disastrous .

If my meager understanding is correct, current dslr sensors have greater 'resolution' than 35mm film did, Kodachrome included. It seems to me, at some point sensor density or resolution potential will exceed lens resolution and therefore any additional increase in sensor density will be essentially unusable. Anyone have any insight on this. I'm interested.

Just wondering. What would you use a 46 megapixel camera for?

For me, the interesting thing about this camera is not the MP size, but the dynamic range the sensor apparently has (rumors, rumors!). That can make really a difference!

I was only 11 when Pearl Harbor was bombed, but I thought it was the Japanese who bombed it. I must be getting senile.
