Last weekend compared f7.1, f8 and f9 on the same shots requiring high Dof. The out of focus background elements looked sharper at f7.1 than f9, f8 seemed to be the perfect balance. A 24 mp sensor will be limited to an even lower aperature to maintain resolution, could limit it's landscpe potential (but would be great for most other shooting styles not requiring high DoF). If the next great Dx has the 24MP sensor in it, I may rent a D3200 for a few days just to test the sensor in advance of a (D400?) purchase.</p></blockquote><p></p>
