[QUOTE="BF Hammer, post: 823953, member: 48483"] Why are you even considering a meager 20MP sensor for this job if pixel-shifting is something you require for higher resolution? 45MP or larger sensors are there to have and don't depend on pixel-shifting at all. If it is a cost issue, you are naming off some very expensive technology and could not afford any of it today anyhow. As for the Nikon Z-mount cameras, only the crop-sensor APS-C bodies have 20MP sensors, and they do not have IBIS or pixel-shift. The full-frame Z-mount cameras go 24MP on up. And then I have to ask why the interest in using F-mount lenses when the Z-mount versions pretty much are better anyhow? Really from my point of view, you are overthinking this. I do not know what your photo subject is supposed to be, but full-spectrum conversions are almost always for taking astrophotography subjects. Infrared conversions are typically landscapes in daylight. If you are intending to do astrophotography, the method is to take hundreds of individual photos and combine them at a computer.
