INTERESTING TECHNICAL ARTICLES

Digital camera resolution keeps going up, especially point-and-shoot digital cameras.  There are technical issues you may wish to consider when educating yourself about cameras.

  1. Color camera capture methods:  in our Camera Selector Charts, you will see cameras listed as color mosaic, 3-CCD color, and 3-Shot color.  Color mosaic cameras offer cost and speed advantages, but the only way to preserve the native resolution of the CCD chip is offered by the latter two methods.  See this article, or the condensed version.

  2. CCD vs CMOS sensor comparison:  cameras with CMOS sensors offer cost advantages over those with CCD sensors.  However, there are image quality considerations.  See this explanation for details.

  3. Higher spatial resolution does not necessarily mean better image quality:  photography guru Ken Rockwell has written an article called "The Megapixel Myth" which you can link to by clicking here.
