24.5 effective megapixels deliver substantial
resolution even compared to a 30-megapixel
model. Extremely faithful color reproduction
does not require minute post processing.
High resolution expected from 30 effective
megapixels is achieved, however, significant
superiority over the D3X’s images cannot be
found that justifies the price difference. Because
color reproduction is not necessarily precise,
satisfactory results cannot be obtained even
using genuine software supplied with the
30-megapixel model.
