Isn't the minimum sample from a bayer pattern sensor a 4 (2x2) pixel clump? That would reduce things by another 50%, not so?

  According to the Nyquist theorem the maximum resolution the sensor
  can sample accurately is half its resolution. This brings down the
  resolving power to 32 lpmm. Roughly the same as a 2800 dpi scanner.
