I disagree, I think we'll enter a new race for 2x2 binned resolution on Bayer sensors. Or at least I think we should.
The advantage of that is you sum out all the loss in resolution from the low pass filter, and get a very sharp image right off the chip, without algorithms guessing how to remove the blur of the LPF.
The 5D mkII already offers 5MP binned raws, and from what I've read those images are very good.
So if 12MP is enough now, we should see a new race to 50MP, with special ultra-high resolution cameras going all the way to 100MP.
Just my 2 cents.
The Megapixel Race is Over
More interesting to me than Ctein's theoretical endpoint, though admittedly much more prosaic, is: where is the point at which the buying public will have gotten its fill of higher ISOs (sensitivity) in digital cameras? I've argued many times that a useful way of looking at the history of photog...
