Mehhhhh, it's a response to Nikon's D800/D810. The 36MP sensor in the D800 is more than enough to find any flaws in your photos and bring glaring attention to them, so a 50MP sensor will do that but worse, and the extra noise produced from 20 more MP will be a downside in my opinion as well. The majority of the other specs are on par with the D810, so not a big step above for me.

  • Customizable “Quick Control screen”

Wish my 50D had that feature.  But it's not worth paying the 5Ds/r price for.

Yeah, I wonder how many Canonheads that criticized the 36MP D800 will jump at this. I actually like the 24mp better than the 36 at many types of shooting, at least its more forgiving.....

Why so serious?

I don't see the value in this at a full frame size. I'd rather have a medium format at that pixel count.

+10, but getting that res size without paying in the 5 digits is quite nice.  I'm interested in it's DR.

AS you know, I owned a D800 and D800e at the same time before getting a 1Dx and later a 1Ds III.

I'll stick with what I have. I know the advantages of many of the MP and I'm very happy with what I have. The 1Ds III makes files good enough for me when it comes to landscapes/studio stuff and the 1Dx handles everything else.

I don't print large enough (or often enough) to require 50MP and for the love of all things pixelated, I have no idea why I'd want 50MP files.

It sounds like you're justifying owning a 1dx when it just got outclassed by a new cam.
