Hi
I apologize if this question has been covered elsewhere...
I'm curious about sensor size (aps-c vs aps-h) and print size, image quality, etc.
Let's make a couple of assumptions to simplify things:
- 100 ISO (let's not complicate this with high ISO noise)
- focal length adjusted so both cameras capture the same image
- static subject, same exposure settings, same lens
- ignore the extra "1D Mk III goodies" (like AF & shooting speed)
Since the 1D Mk III and 40D both have 10 meg sensors (3,888x2,592) does that mean that images taken with these cameras should be very similar as far as maximum print size, print quality, etc. are concerned?
I'm currently using a 30D but thinking about upgrading to a 1D mk III in January. I'll be shooting downhill ski racing next March and the extra AF points will be helpful. I used a 30D last winter and it worked fairly well, except when the skiers were doing their "stunts" in mid-air and would suddenly end up missing all the AF points (the smaller skiers were very challenging).
Thanks
Rob
