PC Mag asks the question What's Next for Digital Photography?
'So let me describe what I see happening over the next couple of years for the consumer camera market. The 8MP sensor will become the low-end standard among snapshot all-in-one cameras. Improvements will come from support circuitry that improves image quality, contrast, and color. I'm told that some of the new processing chips coming down the pipe are phenomenal.
The 5MP sensor will hold the pocket-camera category steady. Most experts see the 5MP sensor as one of the best CCDs you can get, and most people would find it optimal. Samsung is talking about putting this many pixels in camera phones, but unless they use a Foveon CMOS chip, which because of its architecture reduces file size by about 70 percent, the files will simply be too large to be practical on a phone cam....
What we haven't yet seen in still cameras, and what I expect to see emerge in both the pro and semipro environments, is the 3-CCD still camera. This would immediately triple the resolution of the camera (depending on how you calculate resolution).
