Yes, if you compare a JPG of a 24Mpx with a JPG of a 33Mpx you probably find better render in lowest resolution. For a more interesting comparison we have to compare RAWs files, and apply a postptoduction. I had made some experiments in the past between a 24Mpx and a 42Mpx. The result is that: - as is, the lowest resolution produce always the better noise management - if you apply a strong noise reduction to higher resolution raw, and export at the same resolution of the lowest, the result is the same in all "native" iso range - out of "native" iso range (Hi, Hi+) the quality is really poor, and lowest resolution win As third "opinion", take a look to technical measurements of DXO: https://www.dxomark.com/Cameras/Compare/Side-by-side/Sony-A7-III-versus-Sony-A7IV-versus-Sony-A7R-V___1236_1376_1385 As "print" output (so, all at the same resolution), 24-33-60Mpx have the same render. As "screen" (so with pixel magnification at 100%) you notice the differences
