According to Sonyalpharumors.com the new NEX7 (advanced mirrorless) is supposed to share the sensor with the coming SLT-A77. Which according to rumors uses a 24MP APS-C sensor.
Isn't 24MP a bit overkill for APS-C? Wont this cause diffraction to be a problem sooner than "normal"? I read some discussions that one reason for going with a 24MP APS-C sensor is that they want to get rid of the AA-filter. If so that would be interesting.
A77 is supposed to be a fast camera (A55 is already capable of going up to 10fps(in Speed/Shutter priority mode or whatever it is called)), shifting around 24MP RAW files will require a bit of power. The camera is already sounding very expensive.
Its all rumors for now though.
