I don't know Eric.
And as to your point that people on REDuser are naive about how cameras are made, they are not naive about how cameras are used.
As for an 80 MP Stills-only (for all practical purposes) camera? That's niche to put it as politely as I can.
Reviewing Elsie's post.
Elsie uses the generic term "people" that covers sub groups of some people. However, he did use it to apply to people not.being niave about how cameras are used, which sort of reads like everybody. However, I can testify there are seemingly a bunch of people that are naive about how cameras are made (though I can't speak for the rest of them, though it is likely they are too). There are also a bunch of low quantity engineers that appear to be niave about how cameras can.be made too. I am aware of low volume production, but I come from a background seeking to do large production run products going into the millions and hundreds of millions, and there are people I knew looking at billions to trillions frankly, of internet of things, where things change drastically again concerning manufacturing and handling. People around here might often just have no idea of costs, where even a parallel processing chip costs less than a single pin on the chip package to produce (frankly I want to review those costings as I think they are wrong and including other costs into it that are there to support the function of the processor, so that the second pin will be much less extra costs, and the cost of the first pin maybe not much more than other viable alternatives of the day (you might have been able to use a form of induction, but very limited, and it simple shifts cost of chip to the interface etc, but optical might be one option in future Etc etc etc). So, a hand made 4k raw digital camera, which is ridiculous, because it means making even thing by hand really, including the chips and materials. So you are going to have a machine to assemble the components on board because they are too fiddly, but it might cost whatever, say 10x more than an automated assembly line. But then that equipment has to be paid for which costs more in small numbers than I'm large numbers, and so it goes. So instead of a ridiculous times difference to do absolutely everything by hand (including the chips) you can get very low costs on a large production run. But hundreds or thousands of unit are much more costly to setup for than.millions. Sorry, I am having health related troubles forming my writing at this moment (this is the last bit I am writing).
He says 80mp is niche, in context, for the types of things done by people around here at the moment it may be.
