[QUOTE="Silven, post: 207320, member: 16423"] This is such a myth that people keep repeating and repeating and repeating. You DO NOT necessarily want maximum pixels per object in macro. There is the possibility that you'll end up using many many pixels to represent just one point of coloured light. What you want is optimum pixel size in correlation to the point of light. So if you have a sensor that takes 4 pixels to represent a red point and an other sensor that takes 24 pixels, all you're doing is wasting pixels to do the same job that 4 could do. Would you want to pay 24 dwarf movers to move your couch or 4 large rugby players? Pixel density is not the end all and be all of resolution. Pixels size in relation to density is MUCH MUCH more important. That being said this was shot with a D800E.[ATTACH=CONFIG]55655._xfImport[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
