Traditional high-resolution has been downgraded. Canon’s developed an APS-H-size CMOS image sensor capable of recording 120MP images, which will emerge at a monstrous 13,280×9184 pixels. Canon claims this 2.4-fold increase over its previous maximum resolution comes courtesy of clever new circuit timing techniques – which allow the sensor to record up to 9.5 of these huge frames per second.
