    There is no such thing as too much porn, but the question is, do you watching it before, after or instead?
    My favorite way was “during”(back in the days). Now I’m more like “before” guy and sometimes “instead of” (sadly). I have 2mp at home and 10mp Nikon D40x. Need to upgrade.

    im more of “after” guy

    why upgrade? you want more mp? buy a coolscan 9000 and shoot some velvia or provia because im using nikon F and 50mm 1.4 and i can get like 60-80mp straight from high resolution scans

    It would be amusing if they were identical twins, gutted for the 2MP girl.

    I think I prefer 50 megapixel medium format. Each to his own.

    The “smart” thing about this ad is that she is THE SAME WOMAN. Not only that, but she’s photographed from the same side (either left or right – I say/hope the one on the right is the real one). The other side is mirrored and Photoshoped!

    I wish they were overexposed. Canon 5D Mk II also has a nice set of megapixels.
