Pixel count, fill factor and sensor size (and other factors as well) all come into play. An 11mp full-frame sensor might have larger pixels than a 6mp APS-C sensor, so it could be both lower in noise *and* higher in resolution. Improvement in technology also comes into play because it's always advancing: This year's sensors are lower in noise than those from two years ago. -- Mark Roberts Photography and writing www.robertstech.com
