Sorry, I still see the fundamental resolution as 1 pixel site or 1
CFA site. De-mosaicing is imperfect of course resulting in colour
inaccuracies when pixel peeping.

Yes, the spatial resolution is 1 sensor, but the colour resolution is
not. The luminance resolution is somewhere in between.

OTOH, this camera is definitely aimed at large printing and pixel
peeping is almost a requirement.

Indeed. I wonder what the first independent tests will show - I have
a feeling the brochure picture is simulated. What do you think?

I think the brochure images are real.

Which images? Not much in the pdf.

There are several images, not a ton.

OK, from the link above, the zoomable ones in the museum collections,
links at bottom.
