With the higher resolution of sensors, I am beginning to worry we may not be able to use these legacy lenses on future bodies. I do hope that sensor manufacturers do focus on the IQ instead of increasing megapixels. Keep the megapixels war for the medium formats.
IMO, there is nothing we can do, except vote with our money.
Like get A7 instead of a A7r or a D610 over a D800.
To me, the 35mp cameras are too much trouble as a general camera for my needs, even printing up to A3+.
Perhaps Canon understands that 20-24mp is as much as its reasonable and less taxing on some of its lenses.
Higher resolution is just going to make lenses more expensive and big due to the tighter tolerances and catering of edge performance.
Maybe we will see a consumer backlash?
We start to see Canikon FF folks get tired of hauling their stuff around and opting to go mirrorless (m4/3, X-series or Sony NEX, A7)
The new 'no compromise' fast lenses are too big imo for practical travel photography.
Good for a few hours on Orchard Rd, but wears down the user real fast if its a photo trip overseas, all gears carried around for days.
That was the 'norm' a few years ago, but now, the user has a list of other options.
My few cents.
