EDN On Camera Progress

EDN feature article covers "Imaging beyond pixels: Low-light sensors, low-power zoom lenses, antishake technology, and innovative optics". Its main claim is that the resolution race in consumer cameras is almost over. The main selling factor becomes features, rather than megapixels.

However, this does not mean an end to pixel size race. Even if resolution advance saturates, the consumer wants ever cheaper and smaller cameras. This translates into smaller pixels, primarily because of smaller and cheaper optical format.
