My prints from the 14n still look sharper than those from the DmkII at
small sizes. Once you get bigger than the 10x15inch at 300dpi native size
of the 14n files, then the 5DmkII gives sharper prints due to the higher
actual resolution. I'd like to have a no-AA version of the 5DII, I bet it
would be nice!
