I seem to recall reading somewhere that in order to match the
information content (resolution, color depth, etc.) of a professional

equipment and technique) it would take at least a 20 mp sensor. I
haven't seen anything that leads me to doubt that, yet, either. Now to
go try and dig up the reference...
