why does Sony produce APS-C cameras with 24 megapixels isn't that a little overblown wouldn't it be better to have 16 megapixels but 1-2 full stops better light sensitivity

No, bigger pixels != better low light performance.
It used to be more of a factor when the pitch in between pixel sites was much larger, leading to wasted space with higher mp counts, leading to a loss in sensitivity.
The sony a7rii has better low light performance than the a7, which has better low light performance than the a7s, this is because you can resample the larger shots and take an average from a group of pixels, giving usually more accurate results.

~24mp is the sweetspot for a modern sensor. You have no real light loss compared to a ~16mp from a few years ago.
Combine that with Sony's OSS lenses and IBIS bodies and it us a pretty solid setup.
Also, we have gear threads, post there next time.

Uh no, the A7RII is better because it has a more advanced sensor architecture than the A7.
And the A7S is actually as good as the A7RII at high isos when you compare downsampled photos.

To specifically give you something to bitch about online.

>camera x is as good as camera y, if you quarter it's resolution.
Are you really this dumb in real life?
