As I saw someone else mention on the Dyxum forum, what toys is the military currently playing with???

You always hear that the development of sensors etc. is so expensive, yet Canon seems to have created a similar 50 MPixel APS-H (ca. 20x29mm) sensor in 2007, and now this 120 MPixel version...

They won't do that just for fun, will they :confused:

Not sure what the value of all this is, in the light of high ISO requirements for professional DSLRs...
