Default Why the 800E is more important than ever

Surely you only need to resample if you want to retain the original
image size? Otherwise it's pixel to pixel and damn the image size.

If you want to pixel peep, then don't resample. If you want to compare
the 10 MP and 16 MP images Rich was talking about when displayed as an
image - on a monitor or when printed out - then for use on the monitor for
fair comparison (with the whole image occupying the screen), you need to
resample to the monitor's native resolution.

I was trying to get an answer from Rich as to how the two cameras compared
on real-world images - those displayed on a computer monitor, HD TV, or or
a print viewed at normal viewing distance, without a magnifying loupe.

Cheers,
David
