Did both cameras have really top notch lenses And were both mounted on sturdy tripods? Lens Quality is going to be more critical at 10Mp To get the full benefit of 10Mp and of course You need a sturdy camera to minimize shake. jco

Same scene, fl, exposure, etc. His D200 and my istDL. He emailed me a couple frames, 5.8 meg jpegs. I printed his and mine, 7 x 10.5 inches on photo quality paper. He nor I can detect ANY difference in print quality. My printer only goes that size max, but I really wonder how much difference there might be on a 13 x19 for instance. All this is in trying to determine if I really want a K10 or settle for a K100 as a second body. I really want the image stabilization, and like the benefit of having a second body that is identical to the DL in operation. My thinking is that for the price of the K10 I can get a K100 body and an Epson 1800 printer!
