Why does Nikon decide to launch a Full Frame camera, the NikonDF that is gorgeous just as I out grow my D7000

Could be worse you could have started with Minolta and watch Sony get bored with the a-type mount...

I plan to wait until Canon launch a full-frame 40 megapixel camera and then replace my old Canon

Shouldn't be more than a year or so now.

I can't laugh, I had a Canon T90....

Why on earth would you want a 40 megapixel camera?

The Nokia lumia approach. The combined pixels make for a better picture with less noise.

WHS

Is there really going to be much benefit compared to a full-frame 22MP camera like the 5D Mk III?

But that's 41mp on an 8.8 x 6.6mm sensor. On a FF sensor that would be more like 700mp to get the same benefits of oversampling.

I don't think Canon will push the sensor resolution much higher for some time TBH. The top end 1D actually saw a reduction in megapixel count over the last generation and unless you have a LOT of money the weak link in the chain at the moment is the lenses, which is why they have been redesigning a lot of them lately.

To actually acheive the same resolution as a film SLR finally in a consumer DLSR

The pixel wars only really comes into the low end beginner cameras when hobbyist think that more is better
