Nikon D3200
Nikon
Our friends and office-mates over at Pop Photo just got themselves a look at the new Nikon D3200. It's Nikon's entry-level DSLR, but that's becoming less and less of a turn-off--the D3200 has a whopping 24.2-megapixel sensor (which is more than the Canon 5D Mark III!), a new processor that gives it a higher maximum ISO, and can shoot 1080p video at both 24 and 30 fps. Plus, it costs $700 with a kit lens--a pretty sweet package for anyone looking to get into the world of DSLRs. Read more over at Pop Photo.

gosh-golly, wow!!!!! This $700 camera has MORE megapixels than a $3000 camera? There couldn't possibly be a marketing reason for that!
Please let me know which it is:
a) you guys don't know that megapixels aren't the be-all-end-all of digital cameras, but are more often used to lure consumers who don't realize that the quality of the optics and sensor are just as important, and that a high number of megapixels can actually lead to noise/grain in the photos. And THAT is why cheaper consumer cameras sometimes have more megapixels than the big expensive professional ones.
or, worse..
b) you know the above, but choose not to tell us.
Its only a DX, not a full frame. And like Hexo said its not about how many megapixels you have. Nikon D700 best bang for your buck, in my view.
I must admit I am quite a techy geek but when it comes to cameras I am a novice and did actually think that megapixels were a big deal. From what I understand the more megapixels the more detail which means a photo can be blown up much larger?
I am currently looking for a good camera which costs max £200 that can go underwater. Does anybody know of any good ones which I can look at?
