“the lens system won’t give you a better image than that anyway, no matter how high you go in megapixels.”

Some imagers are getting so good that there’s talk of (if not already) mapping out the lens’ flaws so the image processor can correct for imperfections.

I design imaging devices (chips not not lenses) for a living. All image sensors use corrections for the imperfections, it’s called fixed pattern defect correction and it’s been around for decades.
