I know that Foveon sensors, such as the ones that Sigma uses, capture RGB at a single sensor site (pixel). I know that non-Foveon sensors use a Bayer filter to capture RGB across multiple adjacent pixels while integrating the result into a single RGB "pixel".
How does this compare in terms of sensor resolution? Does this mean that a Sigma 14 megapixel sensor has true 14 meagpixel resolution while a Bayer filter sensor only has 14/3 = 4.67 megapixels? Or does the Bayer sensor actually have 14x3 = 42 megapixels? Or maybe something else?
