Re: Effective resolution of camcorder's sensor - does it mat

That was an excellent and detailed summary by Steve.
Sensor design and the data processing to get from the raw sensor data to the final data stream is interesting stuff.

Camera Motion Research "Blackbird".

Re: When will Handycam Sony FDR-AX100 go out?
