[QUOTE="RocketCowboy, post: 591183, member: 25095"] IMO, most of all this comes down to the starting image, before JPeg processing is applied. Lower starting IQ will result in lower finishing IQ. The missing piece, the jpeg processing portion of the equation, is also improving as sensor enhancements come down the road. The image processor in that 12MP camera doesn't crank out the same quality output as the image processor in the 24MP camera. While the starting RAW image has gotten better, so has the processor and processing within the camera. Downsampling the 24MP image to be a 12MP image, and then processing it into JPG ... I would expect the 24MP body to still provide a superior image, simply because there was more data to work with from the start. [/QUOTE]
