Detail contained within the file. Of course the 1DsMKII is fullframe and the Nikon isn't. Though, I understand that is to Nikon's advantage. Here is just one example of what I'm talking about: "As we have proved in our comparisons the step in resolution from 12 MP to 16 MP; 16% isn't as big as you may expect (it's not for instance as big as the step from 8 MP to 12 MP; 22%). Thus at a nice- lens-buying difference of $3,000 the D2X offers much better value for money than Canon's EOS-1Ds Mark II. Don't doubt Nikon's strategy of sticking to a cropped sensor. The advantage of only using the 'sweet spot' area of the lens is clear, full size 35 mm sensors may have long been the dream of the digital photographer but they do place much bigger demands on the lens." http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/nikond2x/page28.asp I would rather upgrade to the Mamiya ZD and skip 35mm, but I may need more "pixles" before the ZD is availible. That's why I asked.
