    What megapixel is it?

    Good question. People who’ve worked it out estimate good 35mm transparency film at 50 megapixels. I was going to write ‘around 50 MP’ but they’re quite precise in their calculations.

    These polaroids are about 4 times bigger, maybe more like 6 times. I don’t know how that scales up, whether to just multiply, but say it’s just a simple straight line upscale, that would equate to 200 - 300 megapixels, wouldn’t it? Tell me that’s wrong, go on…
