I'm sure Boris knows that. :-) Do you remember when some on this list around 2005/6 asked 'why would you ever want more than the *istD? It does everything I need and more.' ? The 24MP means one could throw 3/4 the image away and have *istD resolution. With the D800, one could throw 5/6 of the image away and have *istD resolution. Not that this should encourage sloppy shooting, but in those instances where one can't get the desired angle or composition by filling the viewfinder, this is pretty nice.
