I think many of us here will also applaud this sentiment...

---------- Forwarded message ----------

I appreciate that some clients see megapixels as important because they get
their knowledge from Costco. A couple of Nikon colleagues had to invest in
Canon
1Ds mkII systems or digital backs to retain certain ad clients.

At the recent Microsoft Pro Photo Summit there was a panel on "Too Many
Megapixels?". The concensus of some 400 industry representatives was that
the
megapixel race doesn't serve professional photographers well. When one pro
in
the crowd (Peter Krogh) asked about increasing dynamic range rather than
megapixels there was a round of applause. I think the D3 will please them.
