larger sensors like the M4/3 (OMD and Panasonic and other) size.

In real terms for serious photographers this could mean that a crop sensor camera could have 50-100 mp and the camera could change the mp count to help with low light situations, currently an issue with less than Medium Format digital cameras. So, if there is full sunlight the mp count could go to 50 mp but for evening or candle light pixel count could go to 12 mp which makes each pixel larger to collect more light.

OMDS is partnering with Samsung so this is more likely than it was two years ago.

It's all techno babble . . . go take some pictures and have a good time!!
