Curious thought.
The Power Shots just got released and they have the 12.1 version of the D5 processor in them.
Taking them as being a 1/2 sized sensor and then expanding that to the size of a full frame, 24MP would seem feasible.
and for those complaining that its only a 3MP jump from the 5D2, if they do/are intending to make the camera video focused as some of the rumours have suggested, then they may have decided that 24MP was enough but give the camera better low light (the 2 ISO steps part) and put most of their efforts in getting that picture cleaner instead of trying to squeeze more MP in there. Make the most of what you have etc.
I could just be dreaming, but lets hope they announce it soon so we can all start speculating about the 5D4/6D or whatever comes next.
