I've never done any formal testing, but I have both a 67 and my K20D and I've even photographed the same scene using both cameras.

Comparing with my full-frame Sony at ~25 megapixels is close enough to be too difficult to call except possibly with artificial test targets. (Film scanned on a Nikon Coolscan at 4000 dpi) A significant advantage to me is being able to shoot with low speed films for longer shutter speeds and/or wider apertures with the 67. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
