[opendtv] Re: Line Pairs/millimeter vs. Price vs. Image Format Area


4) In the digital still camera world, because of the reduced imager sizes, they can make the image area smaller and thus manufacture lenses cheaper for the same resolution.

The issue isn't resolution; it's MTF.

Check out the pictures here:

Compare the MTF of the two text images.

The pictures use the same lens.

TTFN,
Mark
