I have the G7 camera which has a 16k pixel sensor and I noticed the Panasonic produced other cameras that have a 16k pixel sensor, so I'm wondering why not move to higher pixel sensors like other manufactures have.
The only advantage of a 16k sensor was when I was only holiday I could take a lot of photos without fulling up the media card.

For some of us 16MP works just fine.

In fact when things got to and past 8MP it worked just fine for me.

But then, I lead a simple life.

As for card capacity, buy bigger cards and/or more of them, they are darn cheap now.
