Exactly!! I dont buy the "our new 24mp sensor magically offers more resolution than 30mp sensors" BS.

Seems like it would be a very easy thing to test.

Wouldn't it have to be via those tests where they take pictures of converging lines ? The actual number resolution might be less, but maybe when you look at photos of converging lines, the 24mp might do as well as the 30mp.

That is to say, if they cut back on the anti-aliasing filter.

Yes. If they tune down the AA filter the aparent sharpness increases, that is why the files from my 5D Classic look super crisp, but there is no more extra resolution than the 12.8mp sensor allows.

Will be interested to see a comparison of this Canon new 24mp "Super sensor" vs a Nikon Z6 or similar camera without AA filter to compare.
