Well, it's getting up there real fast these days (digital resolution, that is):

"Photokina marks the 15-year anniversary of EOS as a brand. Canon is announcing 
two new EOS models at the show - the world's highest resolution Pro-camera, the 
EOS 1Ds and the EOS 300V, which is predicted to become the world?s number 1 
selling SLR camera.

The EOS-1Ds features the first ever full frame 35mm CMOS sensor with 11.1 
million effective pixels. The EOS-1Ds capture astounding detail & colour, 
almost doubling the resolution ordinarily considered state of the art for a 
digital SLR camera in the world today."

Interesting.  At this rate, we'll probably see a 20 Megapixel prosumer camera 
within five years -- maybe even within two.
