Yep, same thought. When I upgrade my D90 for my landwork, if I'm going to spend 2k I might as well spend more, and get the 36MP instead of 24MP.
Plus the "extra" focus points.
The average "joe" photographer won't spend 2k$ on such a camera, they'll jump to a Canon for 4k videography instead for the same price.
I just wish burst mode was faster! Like using dual, or why not, four SD cards to "spread" the writing and increase capacity.
I do like dual SD's for jpg + raw, I think that's the feature I'll be looking forward to when upgrading. I can't do a pro-level shoot with a 32G SD that's set to JPG & Raw, and then using Lightroom to convert all those Raw's into jpgs for the customer "on the spot" is a pain.
Is going down to 24MP from 36MP going to be that significant on pic quality?
Burhan, I can think of sports photography when "rule of thirds" is out the window, things are happening too fast. Cropping a 36MP pic versus a 24MP pic...I can think of the olympics, shooting in burst, and lots & lots of time spent in photoshop.
Reminds me of a previous conversation, where when we will have mega-gigapixel cameras, most photographers will be "lazy". Bound to happen in our lifetimes.
