[QUOTE="BackdoorArts, post: 261318, member: 9240"] Just remember, it's crop factor plus pixel density, not just crop factor. Geoff/Teerecks started what should have been a great discussion on this a while back but it turned into shouting about what resolution really means. What you're seeing here is the classic "Pixels per Bird" measurement and a 24MP DX sensor will beat the 36MP FX sensor in that measure every time. But a D7000, with its 16MP's, is going to be on equal footing with the D800, and that's where all the other factors of sensor quality come into play. So while a picture speaks 1000 words, just realize that this title might need a few more of them. ;) Mansurov had some good thoughts on the subject of DX vs. FX for wild life in general : [url=http://photographylife.com/dx-or-fx-for-sports-and-wildlife-photography]DX or FX for Sports and Wildlife Photography[/url] [/QUOTE]
