(sorry if I fill the thread with 1 sentence messages :-) ) Whichever, your point makes perfect sense...
If the quality of the analog and digital electronics behind this sensor is up to it, I guess these factors will be improved accordingly. I wonder whether increasing the total dimension of the sensors has by itself any impact on the power consumption, then on the heat and electronic noise. 2006/3/17, Patrice LACOUTURE <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > 2006/3/17, Jack Davis <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > > I read that the Pentax 10MP will have a 1.3 conversion factor sensor > > containing 9 micron pixels. > > Isn't the 9 micron larger than even the 5D? > > Won't both color depth and exposure range benefit? > > > > Jack > > I guess you mixed the 645D (9micron, 18MPix, my guessed sensor size > > 32x47mm) with the future 10 Mpix body (APS-C sensor if I remember > well). > > Patrice >
