[QUOTE="Eyelight, post: 303591, member: 24753"] I stumbled across the Cambridge in Colour a couple days ago. If I grasp the concepts correctly, the diffraction simply reduces the effective pixel resolution of the sensor. Putting it in Eyelight terms, small apertures cause the light to spread as it hits the sensor. A big pixel still catches all the light, but a little pixel lets it spill into the neighbors yard, effectively turning an X MP sensor into <X MP sensor. Do we know if there is a loss beyond reducing the effective resolution? [/QUOTE]
