>>3685849> that demands only the finest and most expensive glass to be useful.Also a lie that is never substantiated with actual evidence. A higher resolution sensor will ALWAYS make a lens appear sharper if the lens does not out-resolve the sensor. Look on DXOmark and select a mediocre lens, and compare it between a lower and higher MP body. The higher MP body will always score higher with apparent sharpness. Pic related.
Also, you can always downsample your images to a lower resolution and lose nothing over a lower res body. You can never upsample an image and retrieve data that has never been captured in the first place. Higher MP generally just gives your more options.
Do higher MP counts always make sense? No way, especially not with filesize and workflow limitations. Sure, pixel peeping and seeing insane detail is nice. but I think unless you do enormous amount of cropping, 24MP is enough for practically everyone. And if you do that much cropping, you should work on your photography skills, rather than buy a high MP body as a crutch.
