Hi,
can someone please help me with a problem about senzor size of Mavic Mini ?
I am working on a bachelor thesis a I'm stuck with this problem:

I don't know what to sobstitute for S' in this formula S = (S'*Hg)/f
where:
S = The ground distance of an image side (ground sample distance)
f = Focal length
Hg = Flight height
S'= Dimension of the analog image and sensor size for digital cameras

I don't know, how to find out S'. I didn't find it anywhere in the specification.
Does anyone have an idea how to calculate parametr S' ?

Thanks for help.

I searched it up and it said the distance between 2 consecutive pixels on the ground.

The Mini has a 1/2.3" sensor (measured diagonally) if that helps

It doesn't.
The sensor size has nothing to do with the dimensions of the sensor.

Read the Sensor format and lens size section here for details:

You're right
reading up on it now, the diagonal length of a 1/2.3 sensor is ~0.3", and there's so much info in here that I had no idea about
next time I guess I'll let the experts answer
