RE: [Digital BW] OT...New Canon 10D! !!

2003-02-26 by Seth Rossman

You missed my point!!!  I wasn't talking about D60's or D100's.  I was
talking about your reference to small cameras @ 1/4 the price having higher
resolution.  THAT is why I went to point and shoot reference.

I am talking about those that go chasing every little jump in MP.  

D60 and D100 have the full-size CCDs  their more expensive brothers have. 

 I wouldn't buy a D100 because it's built on a cheap, amateur body with
amateur-type features I can't work with.  No other reason. Okay for those
that can get by that way.

=> You know those P&S high MP don't have more "resolution" at 1/4 the

=
=Seth, a Canon D60 is hardly a point and shoot. Neither is the 
=Sigma. I know they aren't top of the line, either.

=Until the Canon's recent $9000 with 11 megapixel camera, the 
=D60 took the best pictures of any of the competition under 6 
=megapixels. And yes, I've seen plenty of Nikon D1x pictures. 
=Canon D60 is still the best under 6 megapixels.
=
=Six Megapixels was until recently the best there was in the 
=35mm interchangeable lens cameras.
=
=> 
=> What we have is the camera companies sucking in amateurs with 
=> megapixel counts. Six or eight MP stuffed onto a tiny CCD means to 
=> "anti" resolution events happen:  A bunch of smaller pixels 
=and a ton 
=> of interpolation!  So what?!  People that buy into that are running 
=> around still saying, "Mah kem-ruh teks gud pitchurs!!"  Then they 
=> print out on a $49 Lexmark.
=
=My D60 takes Excellent pictures, and I use  1280 printers with 
=a calibrated monitor, profiles, and CIS systems.
=
=> Not even worth arguing with, buddy.

=True!
