I just received the H3 D11-50 which uses the new Kodak 50 M-pixel sensor. Total overkill for web images as it produces files in Raw of 65 mgs and Tiff images as large as 150 megs.

I can only imagine how long it would take to download a 50meg file using cheap bandwidth on a 56k modem !!!!!
50MP? Holy crap.

I bought a Canon 1DsII in 2005 and thought 16 was good... it's obsolete now...

I love taking a picture of a detailed scene (eg a telephoto shot of a city street from a lookout) and then wandering around the image at 100% zoom, you see stuff you'd never notice otherwise. That would be fun with a 50MP sensor.
