48 megapixel sensor with a 2 megapixel quality lens.

Megapixels are a marketing gimmick (mainly because customers fall for it).

High megapixel is a lot more than hype, it allows you to crop a picture severely. That means you don’t have to be a good photographer you just crop to get the picture you need or want.

Check out professional cameras and you will see they all have high megapixels and professional photographers are not taken in by hype.

Both Nikon and Canon have cameras in the same megapixel range. I have never heard a photographer complain that he had too many pixels.
