[QUOTE="BackdoorArts, post: 522319, member: 9240"] Do you mean in terms of MP's? That's actually quite typical in the Pro series cameras. 20MP's vs. 24MP's means you're losing 10% in image size, but the gains in IQ are more than made up for in the "loss". Larger pixel sizes are going to help tremendously with reducing noise (which to [USER=25095]@RocketCowboy[/USER]'s point below means that I expect the D500 to easily rival the D600/610 in ISO noise capabilities) as well as light information (bigger pixel = more light). 20MP's is more than enough for just about anything you're going to do with prints (16x20 requires a minimum of 8MP's) and beyond what you'll need for posting on the internet. Heck, the D4s is 16MPs and I don't remember anyone ever saying they couldn't blow up those images as big as they need them. I think we get way too hung up on MP's, myself included. [/QUOTE]
