Canon has got a new sensor, which is still in the CMOS prototype that can provide up to 50 megapixel. This is reportedly almost twice the resolution of its nearest competition. The sensors are expected to be used for large format surveillance camera for monitoring large, busy areas such as parking lots and theme parks, and factory part inspections etc. This prototype is at 19 x 28mm in size, which is having the same dimensions with the sensors in its DSLR cameras. Perhaps, Canon would use it in its camera line-up later. So far, they haven’t got plan for release for the prototype.
