To a lesser degree the increased number of focus points is also important, though I'd imagine the reals significance is in how many (and which ones) are cross points. This is *not* a studio camera. The ability to get the shot needed in a highschool gymnasium is vastly more important that the number of megapixels. For everyone else, the big issue is not a D5, but rather what will replace the D810... -- Floyd L. Davidson http://www.apaflo.com/ Ukpeagvik (Barrow, Alaska) floyd@apaflo.com
