[QUOTE="Eyelight, post: 304403, member: 24753"] Ok. Maybe not so near the edge. Excerpt and link from Nikon below. More to it, but it explains what I imagined, more or less. "As pixel counts have increased, the size of a single pixel has decreased. For example, if two DX-format cameras; the D40 (image size: 3008 x 2000) and the D3200 (image size: 6016 x 4000) are compared, the pixel size of the D3200 is approximately a quarter of that of the D40. When images are displayed on a computer monitor at 100%, D3200 images are actually displayed approximately 4 times larger than D40 images (area ratio). Even if images are captured under the same conditions and with the same level of hand or camera movement, blur in the D3200 images could effectively be quadrupled when displayed and become more noticeable. For this reason, it can be said that high pixel count cameras are more susceptible to slight movement."
