I shoot a fair amount of stacked floral stuff in macro using a 180 macro lens...
any thoughts on using a 5DS were I to upgrade? Big images are my goals.

Big images are my goals. You can crop images from that sensor down to a 1.6x crop and still have 18MP to send to a printer. For comparison I use to print 10MP images from a 1D MKIII poster size and they had a lot of detail even though I was printing to canvas... My Gallery

racketman Cream of the Crop More info | Dec 27, 2015 11:12 | #7 camera i'd really like to try side by side with my 5D2 and see what gains I get from the increased resolution, no substitute for actually using a camera. Grey import from reliable firm is now down to £1928, still a big investment. For me it would have to be a camera I wanted glued to my MP-E65 as I don't think id have much use else for it. Toby
