43rumors report on Panasonic’s latest compact sensor roadmap – and it says in 2012 a 20 MP 1/2.3″ sensor will come. Also, some “high-sensitivity” (once more) 1/1.8″ sensors. And a 12 MP 1/3″ sensor, probably for the next generation of 40+x superzoom compacts.

Honestly, I couldn’t care less …
(Well, obviously I could, or I wouldn’t have posted this, but not so much as to start a rant about the ongoing megapixel race … one gets accustomed to things, y’know …)
