Light from any single point of the subject passes through the pinhole and falls only at one location on the film... The image of each point of the subject is not a true point, but a small circle or disc. The complete image is made up of thse overlapping circles falling on the film from all the

Murray asks about resolution vs format and asks if resolution increases as the format gets larger. Assume that you keep the same angle of view for each format and use the optimal pinhole for each format. In absolute terms, resolution in lines per mm goes down as the format gets bigger, because
