The resolution and physical size of the sensor are the same so the pitch should be the same. I also don't know how you determined that the electrical characteristics are different. <br /><br />In any case, as further evidence that they are the same sensor (except for AA filter), you can use the Lightroom raw profile for D5200 on the D7100 (after changing the exif to fool LR into thinking it is a D5200 file) and the result will be the same as the native D7100 raw filter for Lightroom.<br /><br />I could be wrong, but the evidence strongly suggests that they are using the same sensor (except for the AA filter).<br /><br />Best regards,<br />Mic360 Rumorshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01173469932778454315noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2361251099864607419.post-12133101664738205942013-05-24T07:19:55.955-07:002013-05-24T07:19:55.955-07:00You cannot assume that by comparing a few mechanic...You cannot assume that by comparing a few mechanical dimensions the two sensors are the same. For one, the pixel pitch is different, not to mention electrical charisterics. They are clearly different.<br />AlThePhoto.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2361251099864607419.post-71535581148545696662013-03-17T15:31:21.831-07:002013-03-17T15:31:21.831-07:004496 vs 4494 could be a typo.

Both sensors may be based on same base design. Does that mean this one could be from Toshiba? Wow, that will be some serious competition for Sony!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
