Very informative post, thanks, Wim!
All discussions of resolution aside, I feel that with a Canon 5D MK II I am at a level that is perfectly adequate (prints above A2 are very rarely called for) - but what I really want is more dynamic range. Maybe I'm wrong here, but I feel that the industry is selling their new technology on the strength of megapixels because it's easier than improving dynamic range.
