Well, the K10D that is offered next month, is 10.2 MP. Then you can crop some more! If you cut away 40% you still have a 6 MP shot. Especially for portraits, this a a great advantage. The K10D cost less than the *ist D did three years ago. Now that's progress!

I crop many of my photos taken with my 7.1 MP camera because I can't yet get a digital SLR. I was planning to get a Pentax digital camera and possibly use the tele lens from my Pentax film cameras but I thought I could crop more heavily with a higher number of MPs. I assume the photo quality must be good for Pentax to continue using 6 MP, but I thought cropping would be more limited with the 6 MP than with more MPs. Why is Pentax staying with the 6?
