If we take a look at what WendyB wrote in this cryptic title:
It's official. K** "H"D
Doesn't everything fall into places?
And WendyB also seemed to be under NDA and has tested the prototype.
Also if you use a 12MP CMOS sensor as a baseline, extend it to 16:9 format, and you would get 14MP! So it can have higher pixel count but with same noise performance as D300 as they would have the same pixel density.
PS: Hmm.... what have I done? My post is supposed to be a follow up and post #14, why is it appearing as post #1?
Larry's "From Dubai:" post is supposed to be the starting post!
