There have also been some interesting studies where higher pixel densities
offset any effects from increased noise in the smaller photosites. Since
the base level noise is averaged throughout many smaller photosites the
noise disappears and the content's details become more visible.

There *is* a free-lunch that disobeys the laws of troll's-physics.


This isn't a free lunch... you have more photosites, but still more or
less the same image resolution at the end. You can already do the same
by post-processing noisy pictures on a computer. Reducing the noise also
reduces sharpness and fine details, but scaling down the image afterward
offsets this.


It's not at all the same thing as any of those examples, you ****ing moron
pretend-photographer TROLL.
