Re: Official: Fujifilm GFX 50S Medium Format Announced!
Guy,
You\'re making the assumption that micron size of the pixels is the determinant factor in the amount of diffraction being projected / captured. It\'s not. It\'s just a factor in whether you are containing the captured diffraction within a single given pixel or capturing it across multiple pixels. Slicing the sensor into 1,000,000,000 MP doesn\'t change the amount of diffraction ... it only changes how many pixels are making up the area of the diffraction (which will still be a constant compared to the projected image size capture by the whole sensor, and subsequent printing size @ magnification)
Certainly using smaller pixels will give the illusion of more diffraction, but diffraction is a product of the optical projection, not how small you slice it.
