Ashley

I think Dpreview did some comparisons and the TIFFs from the 13mpx RAW were
superior. It's been a while since I read the reviews and I'm too lazy to
trawl through them again. If someone is thinking of spending dosh, it should
be a consideration and an incentive to read the reviews (though they were
comparing the D60, S2 and the Nikon D100 when I read them but I don't think,
from what I hear, there's that much difference between the D60 and the D10
as regards pixel output).

May sound pedantic but until you get to the megaDollar cameras, they all
interpolate (not 100% sure about the CMOS based cameras but I think it
applies to them too). The difference is how they go about it. The Fuji S2
has a honeycomb array that provides an edge over the competition. My
understanding is it always shoots at 13mpx and then interpolates down.
