Jay,
It pays to think that way after what you spent for it! (just joking, really)

Just a small error in the original message - a 12 MP sensor is not 1/25th
the size of a 300 MP sensor (if I read Howard's meaning right, otherwise my
apologies), more like 1/5th, if my arithmetic is right.

Cheers
Jayanand
