I just caught a commercial for this:

Nokia Lumia 1020

With a 41 megapixel sensor. That’s… kinda big. My Nikon D5000, state of the art 4 years ago, has a 12 megapixels sensor; current versions seem to top out at about 24 megapixels. While smart phones have impressive optics for their size, nothing beats *good* optics such as you get from real cameras, so I gotta wonder if that 41 megapixel sensor is just kinda wasted.
