Canon Rumors - Your best source for Canon news, rumors and creators

Hello everyone,
I don't know if this has been discussed before but rumors are spreading on on the web that the upcoming 50Mpx Sensors are a waste of money since current Gen Canon Lenses are "only" optimized for 35 Megapixel Sensors.
What are your thoughts on this Issue? How would an Image shot with a lens optmized for 35mpx actually differ from a one which is optimized for 50mpx?

Cheers,
Flux
