Ideal Number of Megapixels
It seems like this topic is somewhat tirelessly debated, especially contrasting the 36 MP of the D800 against the 22 MP of the 5DIII. I was wondering what your ideal number of megapixels would be? Taking everything into account: file size, computing time, lens resolution, noise, as well as image resolution, ability to crop, etc.
Just curious. I think in practice my ideal is 28-30 MP, so a little bit more than I have now (22.1 MP). I would probably upgrade my computer's processor to accomodate the larger files, but I am am planning on doing that soon anyway. I really love the concept of infinite resolution, but in practice, I just can't see myself needing it enough to justify the processing time and storage that would go with the larger files. Just a little more would be nice, but really, 22.1 is more than sufficient.
But that is me, I was wondering if there was actually much demand for larger sensor sizes.
Thanks,
Brant
