I remember this debate when I had my D70. From memory the main issue was around the impact it had on recovering clipped highlights, ( even though if you could recover there would be considerable noise). At the time it seemed such a acute scenario that could be overcome by the likes of bracketing the shot etc.
I'm assuming this has improved over time ? Also, does this effect the non pro, who will be buying this camera , that much ? Personally I think although not perfect, it has taken in depth tests with graphs & the likes to prove any loss of quality in certain circumstances (eg clip levels of blown highlights), that joe public won't be able to tell the difference IMHO.
What do you reckon ?
