The first thing I would ask myself before buying is; how many 20x30 or larger prints do I expect to sell each year. If the answer is less than say....a few dozen, I'd save my money. That many pixels are just a waste for many practical applications like book/magazine publications. If I'm a big print afficianado, I probably would cry when looking at a 30x50 though.
Love the comments, on resoloution. Remember when there was a race, between film and lens makers, to see if the lenses could resolve more than the film could record, and vice -versa? Sounds like we are back at the starting gate.
We win again.

well, that's just great-now i'm gonna have to sell my home so i can buy one-it's better not knowing what medium format can do, i guess-geez-oh yeah, very nice shot by the way
If you look at a picture of Medusa from a DSLR you think "she is ugly". If you look at a picture of Medusa from a 39MP back you turn to stone. Maybe I'll take up golf now or travel the world and paint pictures. Cheaper then buy a Phase One. Nice work...
