Let's take it easy, it's only speculation about a sensor.
50+ Mp has no place in 35mm format, in my opinion.
What it takes is a new 33 x 44 mm sensor (like the Pentax 645D) in an S2 form factor body, a new mount and a new lens lineup.
I wouldn't be surprised if Canon or Nikon or Sony entered Medium Format as the logical next flagship step in a couple of years.
Cramming more millions of pixels into a 35mm sensor would be silly in my humble opinion, there are already too many of them for my taste, they simply get too small.
So I think the logical answer to the question is that it will more likely be a new Medium Format camera, or something in between 35mm and genuine MF.
I would even think there's room for such a sensor in a D4-like body, after all it's rather big.
I hope to see it happen someday.
I disagree with that Steen.
I overlook the D800 for the 41MP Nokia pureview. It is way cheaper, tiny, light weight and comes with a lens and other goodies.
