“Why are there two vastly different megapixel ratings for this product, 8 and 44? Another question, Minolta has not manufactured cameras in almost twenty years. Who is actually manufacturing this product?”

It appears the product description lists both 8 MP and 44 MP, which can be confusing. Here's what's typically going on: 44 MP refers to the effective resolution the camera produces, often through software interpolation. The Minolta MND20 advertises 44 MP stills, meaning its internal processing upscale the image to this size. 8 MP, on the other hand, might be the true native sensor resolution—what the imaging hardware actually captures. Sometimes, manufacturers highlight both the raw sensor size and the enhanced output. Interpolation doesn’t add detail; it simply increases pixel count.
