I must say that I could not care less about technical details such as
these. Don't get me wrong, I'll defend your rights to voice your
opinions and I'm sure it make for interesting post for those tech.
inclined.

It does not matter to me if it's got a Bayer something or not, if it's
3.4, 6, 8 mp. What I do care about is if I will see a difference in a
print for a given size. To me, the proof is in the print. 

So, will it allow me to print the image at the size I want, is the
build quality acceptable and is it within budget constraint and price
competetive.

Sorry about the interference. Please resume your discussion.
