eww he is a braniac

@Dirtfire Oh, and btw, eagles and other Birds of Prey have far more cones vs. rods than we humans do, so their daylight-vision is far more acute than ours. They even have a fourth kind of cone that senses uv-light, allowing them to see colors invisible to us. Their night-vision is not nearly as good, but night-vision isn't important to them.

Night-owls are basically the opposite.

@Dirtfire further, the way more megapixels are crammed into equal-size cameras is by making the pixels smaller, which based on what I've read reduces their effectiveness, often meaning darker, less colorful pictures than cameras with fewer megapixels, even if they have higher resolution -sometimes, sortof.

Everyone should study this stuff themselves, which is what I'm doing.

@mandowarrior123 Cameras don't have the equivalent of rods, as far as I know, unless we're talking about night-vision cameras . Cones differentiate colors in an image, but work only in bright light.

Humans have about 6.5 million cones, which means we have 6.5 megapixels, NOT 254 Megapixels. 6.5 megapixels works fine for humans because if we had more (at the expense of rods which work in dim light and don't detect color) we'd need more light to see, or we'd need bigger eyes to let in more light

we have HD 10080p

@EmoEwok666 even just detachable lenses would be cool. but we CAN use a telescope! :D and "digital" zoom by concentrating on something ;)
