The latest Micro 4/3 sensor is the new 25MP sensor in the Lumix GH6. Pixel density is roughly equivalent to that of a 100MP full frame sensor. The tests I've seen indicate that it has lower noise, greater dynamic range, and better high ISO performance than any other Micro 4/3 and many APS-C sensors. Videographers report using it at ISO 12,800 with acceptable results for some subject matter. The camera meets Netflix standards for video film production.

The GH6 has a special 100MP high resolution capture mode that works both hand-held and on a tripod, because the body has 7.5 stops of image stabilization at moderate focal lengths. It moves the sensor in a step and repeat sequence to combine multiple exposures into one image with a bit of AI. The tests I've seen look great. It's certainly no match for a Fujifilm medium format GFX 100, as shown by tests at dpreview.com, but if you are filming in nature and want a quick grab of a landscape, it will do in a pinch! Just use a better lens than DPReview did in their test chart tests…

It’s amazing how much better the sensor in my OM-1 is than my E-M1X

A lot of the new cameras' quality comes from the redesign of the sensor layers. Coatings play a role, too, as does the processor. If I didn't need video I'd strongly consider the OM-1. OMDS fixed most of my annoyances with the previous generation OM-D E-M1 series (mostly menus and ergonomics).

If we gave two people a digital camera and lens, and after a week we learned one camera has twice as many pixels at the other, who do you think was the better photographer?

You also have to factor in the price of the cameras, Nikon versus Canon versus Sony, RAW versus JPEG, full frame versus cropped sensor. It really isn't that simple.

Is that an 8-bit or 16-bit word?

1000

The same as for a 6 MP image but you pay a lot more for the camera.

You don't create great images while admiring all the pixels your camera is missing.
