It was actually a video I had on in the background so I didn’t pay attention to the details. Was there a flaw in some of the explanation then ?
No, not at at all! It was an honest question...
This has been bugging me for quite some time, although nobody talks about it; and I think your video shows the source of my confusion clearly:
Recording 4K with a 9MP resolution sensor (that is the 16:9 portion of the 12MP AO sensor) uses almost everything the sensor has got. You really have a narrow margin on the sides before you reach the total of 3840 pixels (horizontal) you need. If you crop beyond that, you are not "really" recording at the resolution you claim any more...
Your video perfectly shows how much OA crops into the sensor with all the functions enabled. For the life of me, I honestly cannot understand how OA can do that, and still get a real 4K, 3840 pixel readout...
Unless, of course, it can not, which then would open a whole new can of worms; so I would rather not go there yet |
