The CCD and pixel geometries can be calculated for any camera by adding its most wide-angle focal length, the corresponding 35mm equivalence and its native resolution. The geometry won't be fully exact if the focal length parameters aren't. You are encouraged to add and edit!It's also an experiment of a wiki'ish database. Anyone can add, edit and delete content. So far so good but for the future I will need to add user accounts and/or revision control.
I've been hosting Fedora package listings (repoview based) for some time now, check out the repoview page for more info. This can also be reached from the "Pages & Links" top-menu item.

Hello,
Thanks for you CCD size page. I would suggest to increase number of digits after decimal point for the HTML output, since "2.7 x 2.7 = 7.5" looks confusing.
Thanks.

Thanks for the feedback, appreciate it.
I wasn't totally happy with increasing the number of decimals for the sensor width and height since in most cases it gives a false impression of exactness. The first decimal itself is often not correct because of inexact focal length parameters. But I agree with what you write and find the alternative (decreasing area precision) worse, I have changed it now.
Doing this it occurred to me that perhaps it's not extremely important to list the width and height (sensor and pixel) on the main table (to keep it clean), the interesting number is the area anyways IMO. Thus I'm thinking of moving those into the 'Show' page for each camera (hidden under Edit -> Show right now). Thoughts?
Keep the suggestions coming and please add and edit away!
