2. Optical format - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_format

   The reason it is expressed in inches is historical, dating back to the early days of television. [1] Many image device sheets do not list the actual optical format but do list the size of their pixels in terms of micrometers; a helpful equation can be used to convert the pixel size and array size directly to optical format. The equation for ...

3. Image sensor format - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_sensor_format

   Sensor sizes are expressed in inches notation because at the time of the popularization of digital image sensors they were used to replace video camera tubes. The common 1" outside diameter circular video camera tubes have a rectangular photo sensitive area about 16 mm on the diagonal, so a digital sensor with a 16 mm diagonal size is a 1 ...

4. Photo print sizes - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photo_print_sizes

   The alternative Super series, denoted SnR, nR Plus or nR+, has an aspect ratio of 3∶2 (or as close as possible) and thus provides a better fit for standard 135 film (35 mm) at sizes of 8 inches or above. 5R is twice the size of a 2R print, 6R twice the size of a 4R print and S8R twice the size of 6R. 4D/6D is a newer size for most consumer ...

5. Display size - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Display_size

   The size of a screen is usually described by the length of its diagonal, which is the distance between opposite corners, typically measured in inches. It is also sometimes called the physical image size to distinguish it from the "logical image size," which describes a screen's display resolution and is measured in pixels. [1] [2]

6. Aspect ratio (image) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aspect_ratio_(image)

   In motion picture formats, the physical size of the film area between the sprocket perforations determines the image's size. The universal standard (established by William Dickson and Thomas Edison in 1892) is a frame that is four perforations high. The film itself is 35 mm wide (1.38 in), but the area between the perforations is 24.89 mm × 18 ...

7. Image resolution - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_resolution

   The image would be a very low quality image (72ppi) if printed at about 28.5 inches wide, but a very good quality (300ppi) image if printed at about 7 inches wide. The number of photodiodes in a color digital camera image sensor is often a multiple of the number of pixels in the image it produces, because information from an array of color ...
