Hey Brainiac, can you post an example from the 5DII?
Not yet! I may be speaking out of my oratory, but from everything I\'ve seen so far, 5D2 results are as good as identical to the 1Ds3 at all isos, so I\'m guessing 5D2 users will say exactly the same things we heard about the 1Ds3: \"per pixel sharpness is inferior and images aren\'t nearly twice as sharp\". First, make sure you\'re not criticising the bandwidth limit of the lens, and secondly remember that a 29% increase in linear sharpness isn\'t a quantum leap, but marginal progress. Your 2nd link to the crop of the van in traffic illustrates the resolution increase perfectly. Many subjects don\'t contain much detail at the frequency of the sensor. The right brick wall, at the right distance, can look about the same on a D30 as on a P25.
