Law of diminishing returns here. I moved from a 6.1M Pxls, to 14M, and, saw no difference really. I only print to A3 for keeping.
The pic of the clock face is effectively, from a 9x5 feet, poster print, which I have never seen! Taken with the 6M Pxl Camera, Minolta Maxxum 5D, 35mm Tamron 28/200mm lens, about 35 years old, 1/320th @ F5, 400 ISO, 2009. Hand held, a 760Kb file for Forum use.
Shot RAW, but no RAW processing, did not know how,opened immediately, and P/S CS2, mainly for sharpening. Saved as a jpeg. Eventually asked P/S To "make" a 9 X5 Print, file size 81Mb, sent to person who asked me to take it, was used and printed, down south for an exhibition. Several who have seen it were complementary, means nothing really.
This should be viewed about 5/7 yards away, although seemed to have moved the goalposts for viewing distance now.
Unfortunately, I cannot show a full frame version, a friend has 2 Canon FF, his work looks good to me, his outlay is eye watering.
Your money, your choice, just a bit of research first perhaps. Cheers. Ed.
