I would use ~ Panasonic S5 and Sigma SA to L mount adaptor.

I thought that was a 24 MP camera, which would just not be enough to please someone used to a Merrill or a Quattro, like Roger.

I think when the DPMs came out most other cameras had AA filters.

This is a good observation, as the Sigma fp can deliver a lot of per-pixel detail. The side effect is of course color moiré, which turns up far more often than I expected. Looking forward to that full frame Foveon

In an ideal world, CFA based sensors should take the consequence of this and combine an AA filter with oversampling, but instead we get concepts like Quad Bayer and Nonacell that optimize for processing speed over artifacts even as the pixel count is extreme (108mp for the Samsung Nonacell).
