One of the rumors floating around is that the 50mp sensor will be the same as the 7D II, just larger. I think the key word for your poll was perceived. If the rumor is correct the resolution we are seeing with the 7D II might be close to what we can expect for a FF. A new question would be do I need that additional resolution benefit for the type of shooting I do. As well would I be able to take advantage of the increased resolution with the technique I use to shoot.

I personally can see a benefit for maximum resolution with wildlife, landscape, macro and architectural photography. Beyond that the current full frame offerings have enough resolution for any other types of photography I do.
