Who the hell that one of you thought that we need to build a 50mp Android Smartphone?

Someone who thought the Lumia with the 40 something MP was a good idea?
I think it's silly. But my Windows Phone camera (8xt) is worlds better then my Android (Galaxy S4)

Some gubbin at Nokia I guess.

Well, why not? Assuming it has optics to match the high density image sensor, you can zoom in by cropping to, say, 10 Mpixel without any loss of quality. Zoom without a bulky lens.
And you can do 4:1 pixel binning, which eliminates a lot of the image noise, so you get low-light capability with little noise. Or even 9:1 binning, that will still get you 5,5 mpixel.
Since the Lumia was already mentioned: Nokia White Paper here, http://press.nokia.com/wp-content/upl… Let them explain why such pixelcount can be usefull.

I don't want people to send me 18MB photos of their lunch.
I'm OK with stopping the megapixel arms race. Spend the time making them smarter and faster, not bigger.

I don't give a shit about resolution. My phone is 13mp, and that's almost twice what I need, but the shutter speed is still crap and everything is blurry. What good are all those fancy megapixels if I would need a tripod to use them?
