When the competition one-ups the specs, it's time for a new product. There are other considerations, too--especially if you have a sizeable collection of Nikon (or, in the case of the Sony, Minolta) mount lenses. Often a lens investment determines the next body, irrespective of pixel count.

From what my dealer told me that 22MP camera doesn't mean you get great pictures. I'll stick with my D700 thank you. Watch for the Nikon announcements next week.
