I like to use DPReview for a technical comparison of digital cameras and their specs so I thought I would summarise in a simple table their resolution results on a few popular cameras in order of merit. This is not an exhaustive list and if there are others that deserve to be up there feel free to add them. This is also only one measure of camera performance so shouldn't be used in isolation.
If someone can get the Fuji S9000 to digiscope I will have to get one.
