Well, I don't think that's quite right... with good lenses at a sharp aperture and careful technique, I think you can make use of the sensor resolution and achieve high detail. But to provoke moire, you need a pattern with just the right spatial frequency in the same part of the image where you're achieving that sharpness. I think it's the combination of those two factors that makes it so rare in practice, rather than it just being a matter of the sensor always over-resolving the optics. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
