As I look at all the sensors out there, they come in all kinds of combinations; 35mm with 36mp, the new Nikon 45.6mp on the D850, MFD full frame 60,80 and 100mp and crop frame MFD in 50mp....and there's more.
Given these few I have mentioned can ya'll clarify in lay-mans terms what the advantage or dis-advantage of pixel size has on image quality, dynamic range and ??...The IQ350 has 50mp on 1452 mm of sensor real estate. Pixel size is 5.3x5.3 microns. Phase's iq3100 has 100mp on 2160 mm of sensor real estate and pixel size measures at 4.6x4.6 microns. The D850 sensor has 864mm of real estate and pixel size is 4.35 micros. Then I read a bit about fat pixel backs, some sensor pixels over 9 microns! Any help in understanding the above is much appreciated...Cheers...Don
