Dear all,
Just out of curosity, why is there no pixel binning implemented in stills camera sensors, as it is for example with high-speed video cameras? This would of course reduce the pixel count but increase light sensitivity when needed. Second, why do companies producing small format sensors stick with a 3x2 aspect ratio and not provide a square sensor? This would allow the photographer to crop later to any aspect ratio, without turning the camera to switch between landscape/ portrait orientation...
Any thoughts appreciated.
