Diffraction Limitation, Aperture and Sensor Size: How Small Can You Go? - This article will (hopefully) explain what diffraction limitation is, why it matters and how to live

This article will (hopefully) explain what diffraction limitation is, why it matters and how to live with it. We can’t avoid the physics, which it’s all about, but the whole idea is to help us to understand what diffraction limitation is, how it can affect our photos, why we need to understand it (and especially with small-sensor cameras) and why we need to consider the limitations that it creates, especially with small-sensor cameras.

What IS diffraction Limitation?
It’s an...
