The DSLR is obsolete? Oh.

I remember getting a phone many years ago with 3mp sensor and I thought that was awesome! A 3mp camera in a phone?! haha.

..

The Nikon D1 camera was 2.7 mp

I remember reading stories of people getting billboard size prints from the D1.

I used to have a Kodak DC50 .. ages ago. I can't even remember what the MP was for that.

Bring back memories? Haha

I need to go dust off my Coolpix 5000. Sensor doesn't matter; all you need is manual controls.

 

[nerwin]

That's no compact camera. Lol

Ahh. I actually had the DC120 now that I see the information about them. which was 1 mp
==> Kodak DC Series - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
at work we bought the dc50 0.38 mp and the dc120. When the project was completed we were going to just through them away but I kept the dc120. Used compactflash.
I actually threw it away probably 8 years ago as I found it in a box.

That's awesome! That's when Honeywell imported Pentax cameras to the US! So cool.

Quite possible, billboards are printed at 12-15 dpi. Of course, you have to be about 200 feet from it for it to look good.

I don't know what DSLR you have, but mine looks fairly similar to that? DSLRs with grips look exactly like that.. just not as tall.

Exactly?

Mine didn't. Man I kind of miss the feeling of the grip on my D7000. But didn't feel I needed it on the D610.

Exactly?

They look pretty darn similar to me.

Yeah, they changed the logo location, and made the flash pop up. They brought the ring to the top of the body instead of in the side. The battery grip got a little shorter and the shutter button moved slightly. They added a little red thing.

I've done billboard ads with a D700. And the image was cropped too!
The D700 was a great camera. However, the quality isn't even on par with a current crop sensor like a mirrorless Fuji.
