A 100% view of a 24MP image will obviously look softer compared to a 16MP image (independently of whether or not the sensor outresolves the lens) but a 100% view pixel sharpness is not photographically relevant.[/quote]
For you, you mean? Granted, for ideal photographers who always compose perfectly and never crop, per pixel sharpness doesn't mean much. For others, like me, it does matter. Also sometimes people buy higher resolution sensors for bigger prints, you know.
