Quote:Weird thing to "conclude". Nikon was the 1st one coming with a high res. sensor, buying it from Sony.
Their high FPS models have higher resolutions than their forebears, and naturally lower res. than their high res. models due to the data throughput required.
Wanna bet the D810 follow up will not be higher res.? I won't... It depends on what the next high res. FF sensor will be that Sony can offer Nikon.
The D810 successor will have 42mp for marketing reasons I reckon.
The point is that the 5Ds is a stupid camera. The noise level is silly (full a FF camera) at low ISOs. Especially because Canon sensors are now inferior to Sony. The 5Ds has a worse score than the Sony A99 (24mp) over at DxO mark - the A99 is a 2012 camera.
I don't believe anyone except a HANDFUL of professionals stating that they require 50mp.
Nikon has released two cameras with 20mp (in the year 2016, not back in the days) which shows that they understood a thing or two now.
