Hasselblad?s Newest Camera Gets 200 Megapixels From A 50-Megapixel Sensor

Hasselblad is known for high megapixel counts, but this is getting a bit ridiculous. On the other hand, the engineering solution they've employed to create that count is really interesting. Most camera makers, including Hasselblad, increase the pixel count of their sensor by reducing the size of the photosensitive wells and pushing them closer together. This has some benefits, but also drawbacks, one of which is a sort of pixel density wall that Hasselblad has probably been running up against for a while. But instead of making the sensor bigger or packing more into it, they created a clever hardware-software combination that might give them a real advantage over the competition.
