Well, a frame of 35mm film is 36 x 24 mm. At 25.4mm per inch, that's (36/25.4)*4800 * (24/25.4)*4800 = near enough 30 megapixels. That's 90MB at 24 bits/pixel, or a whopping 180MB at 48 bits per pixel. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
