megapixels

OK I'll have a stab at explaining. If your sensor is 16 megapixels you will have 16M (16*1024*1024)pixels in that sensor. The camera produces a raw image from this storing the sensors resolution in bits for each pixel, with typical sensors storing 12,14 or 16 bits per pixel. Bits per pixel? ...

megapixels

Megapixel sizes are simply the sensor size x x y for example 12 megapixel would be 4000 x 3000 pixels sensor size. As for file size that totally depends on what is in your photo and bit size.

so what your all doing at the week end ????

Nothing much. Mrs wants some work doing in the kitchen. Taking my daughter for another long walk. Cleaning the caravan, ready for the bank holiday. Hopefully servicing mine and my son's (push) bikes, again, ready for bank holiday. I might even squeeze in 10 mins. sleep!

Pentax did not make this top ten list:

According to the article, Olympus plans to concentrate on SLR cameras. Bad for them, as they only make one model (the E5). I suppose they mean large-sensor cameras such as SLRs and EVIL. Oly won't disappear in 2014. Someone may buy their camera business (as happened to Pentax), or they might g...

way back when

It does not include the MZ-D ! And that one had a 24x36 sensor - but was rather large when I tried it out.

Prof. Wang and his high ISO sensor!

Prof. Wang and his high ISO sensor! Professor Wang sounds like someone straight out an April 1st comedy article, but it seems legit .... "Cameras fitted with a new revolutionary sensor will soon be able to take clear and sharp photos in dim conditions, thanks to a new image sensor invente...

Would be great if it's true, but..........

Prof. Wang and his high ISO sensor!

I wonder how it works at lower sensitivty, i.e would the lowest sensitivity setting be 10 stops higher?

Prof. Wang and his high ISO sensor!

That's more than interesting. I hadn't realised that (if this is true) current sensor technology is so inefficient. I'm not sure what this might mean for us though. Higher sensitivity might imply higher ISO and/or higher resolution from smaller photo sites, I'm not sure it implies higher DR unles...

Prof. Wang and his high ISO sensor!

I have no doubt that it is true. Graphene is a material defined by superlatives and it will revolutionise the technology of pretty much everything. After years of trying to isolate graphene some scientists finally achieved it with cutting edge, state of the art technology of a pencil and a roll of...

Rumours are though that commercial applications will take almost as long as the Pentax full frame. Ah, so about another four months then?! John K

Prof. Wang and his high ISO sensor!

More here ..... only 10 tiems more sensitive than Current CCD apparently ( Boo hiss :) ), but I suppose it depends on what you term as more sensitive in terms of stops. 10 times would equal just over 3 stops in binary. Still pretty cool :) .

Prof. Wang and his high ISO sensor!

There he is, pictured, holding a sheet of graphene, which is only one atom thick, and it is not bending. A miracle! It would bend in his hands.

CAMERA & LENS STORAGE

I store all my lenses on open shelves in a part of the house that has no risk of any damp. I've had some for over 20 years and none have ever developed fungus. I've also bought some old Takumars that did have fungus and since cleaning them out 2 years ago it has never re-grown. Regards David

Simple explanation

A good, simplified explanation of some pros and cons of sensor formats. I still have an APS-C film camera. They never seemed to catch on with serious photographers though. Best regards

Back in the game

Well done! Still got my K100D Super which keeps on keeping on (or rather my son has it....). Probably the best JPEGs that anyone managed to get out of that Sony 6MP sensor.

Wonderfully weird

When they have one that also prints out a full frame sensor, I'll be interested....
