The Great Megapixel Shootout
Ever wanted to find out how the 39 megapixel Phase One P45 digital back compares to the Canon EOS 5D, Hasselblad H1 or Mamiya 645? Find out in a fascinating article over at Lumnious Landscape that compares the resolution of 11 professional cameras.
“For some photographers, statements comparing the image quality of different cameras are an emotional powder keg almost as sensitive as racial or gender comparisons. Any ranking I might make would likely ignite a flame war so I have decided not to rank the nine backs. I have accurately described the procedure used to make these JPEGs and you are welcome to draw your own conclusions. However, for any critical comparisons I recommend ordering the DVD with all the original camera RAW files and making your own personal comparisons.”

What I got out of this comparison, is that if you want large images, you can do it with any of these cameras/ backs, or maybe even some lesser models of cameras, BUT, if you want room sized wall murals, better opt for the largest pixel count(back) you can afford !
Sure wish there was an affordable back that would fit my 645 Pro, I didn't get to use the 120 Macro much either.
