Subject: RE: A10: Pentax Image Stabilization is here
I must not understand the arcane measurement of
sensors. If "1/1.8 inch" means 1 inch by 1.8 inches,
that's 24x45mm, which doesn't make much sense. If
1/1.8 inch is a fraction, that would be 0.54 inches
which is 14 mm; but what dimension is that measuring?
And why does that qualify as "huge"?
