HOW MANY MEGA-PIXELS???

Got to thinking, which although not that frequent - can be dangerous, about the present state of camera wars and the megapixel battles that result. With rumors now out on the D4x and other super cameras, where does medium format start to fit in? As the cost of the systems starts to meet somewhere in the $10-$20K range it make some start to think about things like bit depth and sensor size. Now the 35mm cameras have not got to that price range yet, but that day is upon us. Hasselblad and Mamiya are both getting competitive with system pricing to make pros think twice about why they are making the investment in 35mm. I have shot both systems and find medium format quite nice when working with skin tone, fine detail and brilliant color. The 35mm groups are not shabby by any means in these areas either it's just that the climate seems to be changing, so keep your options open and your credit cards ready.
