But who won?

I've thought so too, for a long time. I've seen very little real need
for much more than the 6 to 12 Mpixel cameras I have now for when I'm
making 13x19 to 20x24 inch exhibition prints, and I have vanishingly
small interest in anything larger than that.
Some of my best selling photos were made with a 4Mpixel, JPEG only
camera. Including the two-page spread photo that published in "Red
Bulletin" last May.
It's nice to hear one camera manufacturer at least inject some sense
and rationality in the marketing mania. I don't care who "won". I care
that good camera equipment that does the job I need comes to market.
