<p>One of the best bird pictures I've ever seen was taken by an amateur photographer, and he was indeed using a Nikon camera. But the picture was taken about twelve years ago, and the camera probably had a 6 mp sensor. Take a look at old issues of National Geographic, and see if the images look defective. Nobody had 36 mp sensors back then. A long lens and fast autofocus are probably more important.</p>
