Canon 6D or Canon 5D Mark ii
#32
@ chrismiller.  I guess you read me loud and clear.  I do believe higher pixel counts, (and larger imager physical size) result in sharper images, and sharpness is one of the main goals.  So, I did take a look at the Foveon.  It sounded like a miracle at first.  After looking at photos taken side to side against a FF DSLR.  I came up with much the same conclusions as Brightcolors.

 

To give the devil its due, the camera preserves amazing detail!  In most respects it outperforms the traditional sensor.  The main problem I have with it they attempt to conceal (I think) by including actual different color modes!  The truth is IMO, the sensor cannot reproduce natural colors.  It is a shame, but not really unexpected given how it works.

 

You mention the Sony which produces good pictures.  I happen to like the Olympus Micro Four Thirds for going that route.  Their flagship has 16 megapixels but it takes awesome photos.  But the lenses (only 4 really needed) are several thousand dollars, and yes they are amazing...but it bringing me full circle.  I know in my heart of hearts that FF is better in some situations.  But if a lens can turn a puny 4/3 sensor into a great camera...Maybe what I lack are a couple L lenses?  That's might answer some questions!
