Re: similar sensors, different features ...

Thank you! I'll have to check out the comparisons. That's disappointing that while sensors have gone up to 18 mp and we can now select ISO settings up to 12,800, the sensors haven't really improved a great deal in terms of noise. I'd gladly trade an 18 MP sensor for a 10 mp sensor with 2 extra stops of practical use.

I'm a canon user, and I'm also dissapointed, currently, I'm researching other brands because if canon can't have competitive sensors, others have them.

Problem is I have a bunch of lenses and a couple of flashes.. so I would lose money changing to Nikon... but hey.. more than 2 full stops and a lot less high ISO noise... might worth it.
