It\'s a free country: my view is as valid as anyone else\'s - this my opinion. I think that you will find your landscape photos almost entirely unchanged going from, say a 5D3, to the new Sony 36 MP. Any differences seen will be entirely by you when pixel peeping. This is perhaps important to you, but I doubt anyone else would see the differences unless they join you in studying your monitor. If the high ISO performance is radically improved then you might see some noticeable change, but I doubt this will be the case and as far as I know high ISO is not usually the style for a landscape shooter.
Robin You\'ve confused being entitled to an opinion with having a valid opinion. As a professional that works with large and very large high quality prints that people view close up (i.e. not billboards) there is a huge and obvious difference between the quality of 22 and 36 megapixels in detail and sharpness. You are certainly entitled to your opinion – but you are simply wrong.
There is a difference, but calling it \"huge\" is overstating it.
As a former partner in an photography gallery, I can tell you that a difference in resolution can be the difference between the artist\'s work being hung in a gallery or not, particularly with landscape prints.I
Yes an extreme example should always be used to prove a point
The discussion is over landscape photos, which are often printed large and hung in galleries and homes etc...
I don\'t see an extreme point of view being presented here. Even in my home the largest photos hanging on my wall are landscape photos (and I am not a landscape photographer), and I sure wish they would have been taken with a sensor with more MP. The A7r represents a big advantage in the regard. Why do you think a thread about a Sony release has stayed on the front page of a Canon board for so long....because Canon has not provided what landscape shooters want, and Sony now is.
