[QUOTE="Geoffc, post: 302013, member: 8705"] Wayne, I don't want to get bogged down either and I honestly don't know what point your trying to make:confused: Mine was nothing to do with lens resolving power, rather that if you have a lot of pixels that you can afford to chuck away, you throw away noise and sharpness errors while your at it. For example, if you cause blur across a couple of pixels because of movement you eliminate some of that by downsizing. My resolution point was comparing the pixel density of the D800 and the D7100. I was not suggesting getting a lower resolution camera, far from it. I was saying that if you take a 7360x4912 image you can downsize and still have a good image with less noise.
