Re: Canon is pissing me off
The studio I shoot with uses 5D mk2's in 9.9 megapixel sRAW1 mode all the time, and we have 20-30" canvases on the wall that look great even when you view them from ~12" away. Sure, they're not as incredibly detailed as a 21 or 36 megapixel image, but the bottom line is that they look gorgeous from just a few feet away,… -
Re: Canon is pissing me off
12 MP is wonderful for anyone who doesn't need / want megapixels. I am eternally grateful that Nikon made the tough decision to stick with 12 MP. And thanks to RAW compression and the option of 12-bits instead of 14-bits, our 12 MP files are even smaller than the 5D mk2 in sRAW1 at 9.9 megapixels. In fact they're almost as… -

Sounds like you're happy then, and I assure you I'm happy. Yeah, it's kind of frustrating that Nikon won't be slapping the D4 sensor in a D800 body just yet, but sooner or later they will do something affordable and less than 36 megapixels, and when they do I'm positive that it'll be a much better camera FOR ME than… -

I'm going to guess that you thought 5dII files were going to be too big before you made that leap. Maybe if you moved up to 36, you'd find that to be just right? I have two 12MP Nikons… -
Re: Canon is pissing me off
See that's the beauty of Nikon. Options. 36 MP too big? Turn up the RAW compression all the way, and your RAW filesize drops down to about the same as a 21 / 22 megapixel Canon. (~30 MB) Need all you can get? Lossless compression, or even un-compressed. BTW, I've shot PLENTY with 21 megapixel files, and I do…
