default imagemagick density when converting from pdf

we have the following code

convert foo.pdf foo.tiff

this has been working fine for years, and the resulting tiff is a reasonable print quality.

we just upgraded imagemagick and now the tiffs are low resolution.

I am assuming that something changed in a recent IM upgrade, and I will have to explicitly specify the density:

convert -density 300 foo.pdf foo.tiff

Is this a correct assumption? Does anybody know if this has changed recently?

I just want to make sure there is nothing else wrong...
