Boy have the ad writers programmed you, Paul. Since resolution is a
linear increase not a logarithmic one it is about 29% increase in
resolution, not 67%. You have to go to 24mp to double your resolution
from 6mp.

than six, and six has proved quite adequate for all my needs. I look
forward to ten and will be buying on day one.

Whats the point of a 10MP sensor when the rest of the world is using
12-17
or larger? Perhaps an excercise in mediocrity.
