Exact crop factor of K3 Sensor.
I'm totally anal! Lucky for you so are Pentax I was disappointed that the local hospital uses Olympus lenses. I was given some really clear snaps of my innards but can't show them on here :(

The Ricoh/Pentax values of 23.5mm x 15.6mm might well be correct for describing the actual image capture area, if they have been rounded to one decimal place. Working to 3 decimal places for a hypothetical example, if the dimensions were 23.485mm x 15.615mm, the ratio would be very close to 1.50...

One way to settle this ... if someone can send me teh sensor from a K3 I will get it measured to within 0.1µm (micrometer)- 100nm or 0.0001mm.

... if someone can send me the sensor from a K3 ... Would anyone want to crop the sensor from their camera? :D Philip

Exact crop factor of K3 Sensor.
A Pentax MX is 24mm x 35.9mm A (cardboard) Kodachrome slide is 23mm x 34mm So 24x36 is non-existant anyway. --

Algi, whatever are you talking about? A Pentax MX is a 35mm film camera with a nominal format of 24x36mm. A Kodachrome slide will no doubt be slightly copped by the mount, but not to 23x24mm!

Exact crop factor of K3 Sensor.
We're assuming perfectly square pixels and even spacing between them horizontally and vertically? Assuming things doesn't sit right with me when we're into a few decimal places accuracy. In the real world i.e. taking an actual photo, the aspect ratio will be affected by lens distortion anyway.

If you take a photo with a 1 to 1 ratio lens like the Pentax 100mm f/2.8 WR D FA smc Macro Lens and put a mm ruler on a table going up and down and left to right you can see exactly what the dimensions are .

Pentax 54MP FF DSLR
Pentax 54MP FF DSLR not such an impossibility. A strong rumour is that Sony are working on a 54MP full Frame sensor. By the time Pentax release a FF DSLR it may well could feature a 54MP sensor. Personally I think the MP race from a photographic POV is insane, I would much rather ( ex...

A FF 54MP sensor arriving to make sure the new 645D is quickly out-classed in resolution :wink:

A 54MP FF sensor would have about the same pixel density as the 24MP APS-C sensor in the K3, so I see no reason why it couldn't be made with current technology.

Random thoughts time: In the 'old days' of 35mm film, was there ever any in body image stabilisation? Just wondering, as suspending a sensor obviously ups the size all around it, as it's now wider than just the sensor on it's own. Are any brands doing in body stabilisation of a full frame sen...

Are any brands doing in body stabilisation of a full frame sensor? If this was bought to market, surely that would be a major first? Yes, Sony. Beginning way back in 2008 with the A900 then the A850 and presently the A99. Best regards

It maybe too much too soon. 54MP? Noise? Dynamic range? Many years ago it was said that a decent roll of film and a good lens would produce an image that gave around 50MP of detail if it was a digital sensor. Now the technology has advanced so much, a 16MP sensor problably is around what you would...

Indeed, but progressions in IQ are suffering becuase of the MP race. the Nikon D4 sensor which is 16MP hasn't got a great IQ reputation f...
