Having dug out and digitised some old fuji slide film, I got into old file resurection and was liking how the D90's 12mp performed whilst I was on my hols in new york 8 yrs back. It occurs to me that unless texture (in close up) or detail is vital for the message of our snaps, then 12mp is actually quite fine. In fact it concentrates the eye on colour, tone and composition which are, in some cases, most important. Why can't we choose how many MP our sensor uses? I'd quite like a lower resolution at times. This for example seems quite enough detail to me (Nikon D90, kit lens, 12mp JPEG)
