Have sensors really passed the resolution of lenses? NO!
Alan Browne wrote:
There is also the "Kodak equation" which used say something like the resolution of the system is that of the lens and that of the film combined - it's not simply the worst of the two. I can't find the equation offhand, it may have been: sysres = 1/(1/filmres+1/lensres) Isn't it MTF_{system} = MTF_{lens} * MTF_{sensor} ? That would make sense --- MTF is 0--1, the whole system is weaker than all (imperfect) components, the weakest component limits the system most (and increasing the better component(s) only results in slight improvements overall), ... -Wolfgang |
