So the total amount of (sub)pixels is: 3 x 1.3X ~= 5MP. Of cause 3 x1.3 is not 5MP and I am going to sleep because .... Another trick is that the higher "resolution" - understand the size of image - is artificially increased using an interpolation. If you need a real 5MP resolution you need a 5MP camera, not 1.3MP, there is no way, how to cheat it. Vaclav M. On 11/01/2010 11:55 PM, Manuel Escudero wrote: Hi!
