Oh yes. I didn't even want to get into the technical merits (or, more
specifically, the lack thereof) of his article(s). For me, his
description of a well-reasoned opposing view as a "hate website" was
enough. People like that aren't worth my time even if they have useful
information to share.
His technical information is largely rubbish, deliberately or
unintentionally misleading. He rationalized away the difference between
his Nikon D1x and the Canon 1Ds by noting (correctly) that a doubling of
pixels yields only a 25% increase in linear resolution. But if you think
about it for a moment, what would you give to be able to increase the
resolution of all your lenses, for example, by 25%? ;-)
