Apparently there's a lot to understand on this topic ... Instead of delivering elaborate explanation here, simply Google-ing "sensor size vs. image quality" will reveal tons of good information. But, in very condensed form, the principles are that
"Digital compact cameras have substantially smaller sensors offering a similar number of pixels. As a consequence, the pixels are much smaller, which is a key reason for poor image quality, especially in terms of noise and dynamic range."
Agreed. The picture quality is not going to improve substantially until the cameras start carrying around decent lenses. The Micro Four Thirds , or m4/3, lenses promised to be way to solve this, but the weight of the lenses is far too great to carry on any of the modern drones, particularly when the size is getting smaller and lighter. What is needed is for a lens maker to develop a small range of high quality, but light weight lenses, then we might see some competition in the quality classes. |
