Tin-foil hat segment: One has to wonder whether part of Sony's reasoning behind going with a 24-megapixel APS-C sensor was to force Micro Four Thirds into an uncomfortable situation where they either push out a 24 megapixel sensor prematurely and suffer the IQ consequences, or give Sony the "horsepower/megapixel" advantage of "we have 24, they have 16, what are you gonna buy Best Buy shoppers? 24 is more than 16! Go horsepower go!"
