"Now a 18mp digital back may not seem like state of the art, though it is a very good looking 18mp and offers a different look to the P-30+ so this is a pretty good combination for the price.I did have some concern going to a more cropped sensor size, but in reality never really noticed it as if you measure down the long side of the frame the A-22 is actually a 1.14 crop and the P-30 is a 1.24 crop" . . . .
