Not at all. Better D-A conversion is unrelated to pixel count. It affects with *every* pixel, potentially yielding lower noise and better dynamic range, so it would be a big advantage even with a low-res sensor. -- Mark Roberts Photography & Multimedia www.robertstech.com 412-687-2835 -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
