I genuinely don\'t understand so many people on this board.

So it\'s a little sharper? Is that REALLY worth >$1000 (ONE THOUSAND DOLLARS!) to some people.

Just to remind you...the range is the same, the amount of light it gathers is the same.

Are you seriously prepared to drop close to a month\'s salary on something that will not in anyway whatsoever allow you more creativity, or improve your photography in any way, shape or form, purely so that when you zoom in 100% on a monitor you can say (presumably in a nasal tone) \"mmm....yes, I would have got 4.62% less detail if I\'d stuck with my Mark One\"

Poke yourself in the eye until your vision is a bit blurry then give the $1000 to a 3rd world charity!


Exactly!

I don\'t understand it either. Sharpness is a non issue ... Processing mitigates for it, Lighting mitigates for it, Viewing size mitigates for it ... It\'s just an inconsequential factor to worry about.
