The most interesting question is: Why does a smaller, hdv tuner, AVCHD camera with, say, a chip that is 1/6″ in size, with over a million pixels packed onto it. have differences, both good and bad, versus a chip that is 2/3″ in size, but is only considered standard-definition with about 320.000 pixels?
In a small, high-definition-resolution chip, the pixels are smaller and packed more closely together to fit onto the chip, leading to a lower signal-to-noise ratio than a standard-definition chip would have achieved.
