jadin said:But implying that the 8mp camera will by default do worse, is quite simply not true. Given equal setups (same tripod, same lens, things like that) mega pixel count has no bearing whatsoever on how clear a photo will be. Sensor size on the other hand does.
I don't think he is implying that at all. Given equal set ups...you are correct, but he is saying that the set up that you use is more important that the number of MP you are recording...and possibly the size of the sensor (within reason).
So when someone asks how big of a print (acceptable quality) they can make...it depends on the file size (MP count), noise levels (Sensor size) and sharpness (technique, lens, software etc.).
That's how I see it anyway.
