Hmm can anyone confirm that the NEX-7 captures in 12bit instead of 14bit?
It seems all the NEX cameras are 12 bit according to DXO. The D7k and K-5 are both 14 bit like most DSLRs.
I don\'t know the answer but far too much is made of 12 bit vs 14 bit as it relates to IQ. I have yet to have ever seen a difference which could be attributable to this one metric. One could easily show 12 bit cameras which outperform 14 bit cameras in IQ as there are so many other variables to consider which make more of a difference. In practical terms, not theoretical, it really does not matter imo.
