I'm hoping that you may be able to enlighten me a little further. I'm just one of the *many idiots on here* because of the simple *fact* that I don't share your point of view, it is of course *fact* that your point of view is correct because you declared it so. I must therefore be an idiot. Thank you for that clarification...



*A 51MP medium format beats a 60MP FF*, because the MF requires less magnification. How does that work say on a screen? And how does that work in a print? Image resolution is the number of dots, and magnification is
change in the number of dots per inch. It's a little more abstracted than size of sensor/size of image.
Then his/your pal, (
are you TAP?), has got a gig photographing relics and the minimum entry is a MF camera because of the resolution, (
though I thought museums still used 10"x 8" for archival, but what do I know... 
)...
Now us idiots don't recognise the difference in formats because we are viewing resized jpegs on screens, (DOH!), and don't understand that to see the difference you must look at the full resolution TIFF in print.
But isn't the gig to produce a virtual tour of the museum (
EDIT - or reference shots for research), to be viewed as jpegs on a computer screen?
Now all you Bedroom Boffins/Armchair Experts can watch as many YouTube videos as you like but the only conclusions you seem to come up with are ones like "X is a bigger number than Y", and I am struggling to see the relevance of any of it simply because none of it demonstrates any understanding of how to make compelling images with any camera.
Habeas Pictorus...
