But who won?

"Twelve megapixels is, I think, enough for covering most applications most customers need," said Akira Watanabe, manager of Olympus Imaging's SLR planning department [interviewed at the PMA]

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.
