While participating in another concurrent thread, I had updated my graphic that shows final print size, for DSLR and P65+ MF back, as well as 3 film formats. The formats are:
15MP DSLR
24 MP DSLR
60MP P65+
6x7 Mamiya 7 (Velvia)
4x5 Velvia
8x10 Velvia
Instead of a bar chart, I re-did the graphic to show the true aspect ratios of the max. final print sizes (to scale) while holding 5 lp/mm to all prints. The purpose of the graphic is to demonstrate how apt. diffraction effects max. print size, (at 5 lp/mm) at 4 different DOF scenarios,
1) No DOF,
2) Min. DOF
3) Avg DOF
4) Max. DOF.
This illustrates where each format excels, as it relates to recorded resolution. All f stops are scaled to their respective formats. The numeric table at the bottom. 1/R was used, at 1500/f stop for aerial resolution and for recording media - digital used pp/mm and Velvia 80 lp/mm.
