Fortunately, newer sensors add not only more pixels but also imporove on the S/N ratio allowing for an improved dynamic range, so it doesn't have to be a trade off here. More stress on the lenses border/corner as Klaus pointed out, but overall it's (I guess) what we call progess <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' /> It seems to me high ISO quality is pretty good today with usable ISO at 1600 in most cases, I just trust Sony (or any other chip maker) will not compromise here too much <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />



Anyways, isn't it a bit too early to discuss the Sony 24Mpix that is not out there yet <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' /> ?
