RE: Am I Really a Dinosaur?

[J. C. O'Connell]

Based on the fact that it takes 4000ppi
to get all the resolution from at 35mm
film, that equates to 4000X6000 pixels.
Those dimensions would mean you need 
a 24 Mpixel camera to equal 35mm. Right
now they are only in the 5-6 Mpixel range
so they have to get 4 times better just
to equal 35mm, and about 16 times better
to equal 6X7. I'm not saying they cant
get there but its gonna take some time....
