OK, understood. That is not only of no use but of no importance to
me. I shoot my Rebel XSi at only half it's 12 MP which is still WAY
overkill for my requirements. I'm always curious though when people
tout just/only resolution as a justification to make an expensive
purchase or an even more expensive changeover to an all new brand,
but I leave that to each individual to decide.

It's about larger prints with lots of detail and tonality. Folks who grew up
on Edward Weston's sensuousness, Minor White's abstractness, and Ansel
Adams's sense of space and grandeur, all with luscious tonality and intense
detail, know how beautiful a large, quality print can be.

If you aren't into fine art prints, MP may be not the be all and end all.
But here, I could live with manual focus and no built in meter if the image
quality were there.
