WRT storage space….arguing against new technology due to memory needs or storage is really a false argument in my opinion.

I think this was a good conversation starter without actually testing the camera. Everyone considering on purchasing this camera should ask themselves these questions and more. Let’s see how the images will hold up with higher ISO. If the new technology is there with better quality, then this camera could be the right tool for artist that’s interested in entering competitions or having their work displayed in galleries. Print photography is still relevant to many photographers in various industries. I would definitely say these new 50 Megapixel cameras will cater to a certain market like most technology does

Things are alway getting better, canon comes out with better lens and your lens is more then 5 years old its problem time to move up. Everyone knows that the glass makes the images #1. Just like it has alway been the lower the iso the better the images #2. but now the more pixels the more detail, the better the image. I have canon and mamiya. Anyone can take great images with a canon type camera, But You really need to know what you are doing to step up to the PRO level like Mamiya. Don’t nock 50,60 or… Read more »

I totally agree. I’m using 16mp sensors for years now and never ran into the problem of low quality prints (tried max. A3). Why the the big camera manufacturers (especially Nikon and Canon) don’t change their thinking regarding megapixel vs. ISO performance is beyond me. Image quality is not a concern anymore with almost any camera. Now it’s about ease of use, build quality and extra features like weather sealing or built in WiFi. And compared to some of the mirrorless cameras out there, Nikon and Canon cameras are so far behind offering these features that I am seriously worried… Read more »

You might need a new set of lenses. Lenses older than about five or six years might not be able to hold focus for the entire image. If you are a landscape photographer, you probably want clean and sharp edges. Your older lenses might do fine for the center of the image, but the rest of your image might be soft.

Good article – most folks forget that a 4×6 print at sensible resolution only requires 2 MP. The average full-screen web picture needs even fewer. What all those extra megapixels do is offer freedom to crop the image to give the best composition.

Clearly this is a special purpose tool for landscape and studio photographers. IMO, the model with an AA filter is redundant.

The Mark IV is rumoured to be coming out toward the end of the summer, and it’ll be the one that most of us will be drooling over, with a more reasonable megapixel count, better ISO sensitivity and dynamic range, and HOPEFULLY Canon will clue in and give us WiFi and GPS too. Until then, let’s just call these ones what they are; specialty, niche cameras.

Larger files from your camera will require more memory and more powerful computers to handle them. You are going to need to consider your storage situation. These files will take up quite a bit more space.

Absolutely agree and hopefully I can get my hands on one soon and put it to the test. Maybe, it will blow us away but for now without saying they’ve improved anything else, I’m going to remain very skeptical.

Absolutely, it could very much be the best camera’s canon has yet made. For now I’m a canon shooter and have been for many years. I actually need a new camera. Will these be an option, maybe? However, if 50MP is all they are promoting about these cameras, well my hopes aren’t too high. I could be wrong and like I mentioned they are probably going to be amazing cameras. 50 MP though, I’m still very much suspicious.

Megapixel wars seem to be all the rage these days. Between the Sony a7R IV, the Nikon Z 7 II and Canon EOS R5 (not to mention medium format options), high-megapixel cameras are certainly becoming more and more common on the market.

I usually shoot with a 46 MP Nikon D850, but on the first day of the Michigan City Great Lakes Grand Prix I opted to take both that and my 16 MP Nikon D4s. On the second day I took only my D4s, primarily to not carry so much gear but also to get the frame rate of 11 FPS vs. 8 FPS and process photos much faster afterwards.  I wish I had taken only my D850, the detail on the photos is just so much better, and there’s a lot more room to crop (although I don’t like to)… Read more »

Ask yourself how and where you utilize your images. Are you and your clients mostly posting for web and social media? What are your largest print sizes? Honestly, unless your images are constantly on massive billboards, you do not need 50 megapixels.

In my honest opinion, comparing these specialty cameras (because that’s what they are; they’re aimed at fashion and landscape photographers primarily) to the other offerings out there seems a little premature and silly.

totally agree. The best possible thing that photographers can do is not chase after the latest and bigger MP, its about settings and knowing your gear to the n’th degree.

Megapixel means that a camera can capture 1 million pixels per image. That means a 12 megapixel camera can capture 12 million pixels per image. Does that mean a 50 megapixel camera is amazing? Im sure the camera is amazing, but why would you need 50 megapixels?

Although I *like* the idea of a 50mp camera … I have 3 basic concerns here. 1) What I really want in a camera is better dynamic range. I think the jury is out on that one. 2) I shoot at ISO 12800 a lot. This camera only goes to 6400… but the jury is out as to the quality of 6400 (if it’s better than the 5DIII quality at 6400 then maybe it can be pushed). 3) Most of all…. I worry about DLA (diffraction limited aperture). The size of the pixels means that beyond f/6.7 the image starts… Read more »

UV Safety Goggles provide optimal eye protection while using UV tools. The UV Safety Goggles have a clear, dark lens for optimal vision, and long-lasting comfort. They also possess adjustable legs, for the perfect fit.

Pam, all 50 megapixel cameras can be set to shoot smaller 20mp images. I shoot high end portraits that are printed as life size or larger similar to Avadons American West series but I also shoot food for the web. In this case an inexpensive 5DS R is perfect. Just sayin.

Is this discussion still valid? Just read the article about 50Mpixel: after starting with my aunt’s old Kodak b+w box camera, then an instamatic, then Minolta up to a BRILL X700, my first digital was an Olympus 5.5Mpxel MJU. The Fuji 1500 bridge cam was a BIG improvement, but I STILL see the benefit of the Nikon D800 36Mpxel over the 10Mpxel camera. My 30” x 20” print of a dolphin (Funghi, Dingle) head underwater sold over 50 copies, and many smaller prints as well: from 35mm film.

Camera shake is a big concern with 50 MP. Poor low light capability is my second concern – with more noise than 5d3. This camera is specialised use – it needs lots of light – as in Studio for 5dS or on a tripod I.e. Landscapes for 5dSR

Truthfully, more megapixels can possibly decrease your overall image quality. Your higher megapixel count will likely increase the noise ratio in the camera. Chances are you will have noise in your images that have a higher ISO.

MPB – Grab used but perfectly working cameras and lenses for less, or turn your old gear into cash by trading and selling them on MPB!

Selling more megapixels is about marketing more than it is about utility and function. I liken it to the production of automobiles with 150 mph speedometers for use on roads with a max posted speed of 65 or 70.

I agree, if you primarily shoot for Facebook or social media then 50 MP is not for you. One could argue that anything more than 2 MP is overkill for web publishing…so why have anything more than a point and shoot?

Thats a bit narrow focus for the article Its hardly just a “50mp” camera without other improvements in the technology under the hood. Do we all really need 50mp?
