Is 60MP going to be the standard for a few further generations? Is that what you would want?

When moving to 60MP, what was the improved value proposition?   Increased crop?  More Dynamic Range?  

At 120MP: Even more cropping?    With my APO lenses I can crop quite a bit, and/but double the MP and I imagine many older Leica lenses could not keep up from a cropping standpoint.   So more MP could be a marketing ploy by Leica to drive greater lens upgrade.

I guess the question is: what is the problem to be solved that we do not yet realize is a problem?

Yes, but I defy anybody to prove to me that 24 MP is inferior in the end result to 60 MP, unless it is about cropping. In other words: excellent for a Q camera. 

Come to my studio and I will show you some prints.
