Ken Rockwell wrote a great article<\/a> that makes a lot of sense technically as well as practically. Though it does help with my less-pixel stigma, it makes sense that those who want to make more money will throw the wool over the eyes of the consumer.<\/p>\n

CAUTION:<\/font> back off. Before you start raising fists and writing anti-capitalist picket signs, I am pro-capitalism… but sometimes it’s just not right to sell stuff just for the sake of making money off of the average pixel-loving Joe. Teach Joe how to "fish" and then let him decide if he still wants to buy the Auto-fisher 2000 to show up neighbor Fred. Joe doesn’t need that Auto-Fisher… just some line, hook and a cane pole. <\/p>\n

Fifty percent of the full story in hopes to gain a buck is 100% dishonest in my book. If Joe learns (or cares) how to fish, teach him properly. THEN if Joe wants to remain "fishing-ignernt" (southern spelling) then let him.<\/p>\n

Anyway, my D100 is a 6 MP camera and I was worried about the enlarging of some future photos (8×10 and 11×14). Though I knew it could be done under the right camera settings, I wanted to confirm this thought. Thus Ken’s article.<\/p>\n

Back to the pixel-envy statement. Would I pass up an opportunity to upgrade? Nah. I’d be there buying the Auto-fisher 1000…<\/strong> on sale (overstock). It’d be nice. BUT, it’s refreshing to know I don’t NEED the Auto-fisher at all. Just my cane pole setup. Hence my reason to share this article with you as well.<\/p>\n

So for anyone who would like to take your minimal pixel backside to the cleaners with their 20MP Canomatic 10000, tell them to chill… and read the article. They’ll still probably tell you that their dad can beat up your dad… and he caught a bigger fish.<\/p>\n
