I don't recall asking for your endorsement or anyone elses, however I do recall asking for an opinion as to which camera would be better (50D, D90, D300, etc.). If I was looking for your approval I would have PM'ed you.I'm sorry that I didn't fall over and overwhelmingly endorse you throwing cash at a problem.
If your intent was to offer some friendly advice, why did you preface your post with "I don't mean to be a dick" then proceed to talk to me as if I were 10 years old? You knew full well your post was going to be inflammatory, and now you want to play sophomoric internet games.By all means though, assume everyone who cautions against your line of thinking (which is a bit faulty) is personally attacking you or denigrating you and get butthurt about it.
You don't play the victim role so well, you're far better at being the dick. If all you said was "hey man, think about it this way" we wouldn't be having this conversation. Note that other posters did offer friendly advice regarding my rationale and I didn't respond to them negatively, did I?It is your money, but when you post what you are doing with YOUR money in a public forum, expect some folks to say "Hey what a minute."
Got it. The problem is, if you care to read (reading comprehension) you'll discover I had already sold my camera and mentioned this in the very first post. I don't need a recap of what I should have done, I was asking for an opinion on equipment going forward.Already folks have come forward and said "the problem isn't megapixels" - its your choice whether or not you validate the opinions of those who don't validate your purchase. ROck on brotha!
Even if I had asked for an opinion about what to do chances are I would have gone for the 50D anyway. It's been driving me nuts since I left the store with the 40D. I don't expect you to understand, or pretend to understand.
I got it, crystal clear. As noted I will further investigate my pixelation problems with my new 50D. I'm sure I'll figure it all out given time.In the end, yes I would say if you are upsampling 40% crops of an original image and it is coming out "pixelated", then you are doing something wrong; whether that is not compossing properly in the first place and instead of working on that tossing megapixels at it, or you just dont have that good a familiarity with Photoshop or whatever editing program.
