usually don't offer great sensitivity. A year ago, sensors were 1/4 of an inch, but this year the race for compactness has reduced them to 1/6 of an inch. This has had affected sensitivity. Fortunately, some makers (like Sony) have worked out solutions to limit...

Sensitivity Training. FujiFilm's FinePix S2000HD. FujiFilm's latest camera sports a mind-boggling 15X zoom, but learning to use this camera to its fullest potential can get tricky.. The sensitivity of the camera’s imager is what determines the camera’s...

when the manufacturer supplies them. It's difficult to compare the different ways of expressing sensitivity simply. If you take the standard impedance value of 32 ohms, the sensitivity in mW is equivalent to a sensitivity in dB SPL for 0.18 V, which works...

The Aurvana’s sensitivity is listed at 105 db/mW, which sounds about right compared to the JVC’s 102 db/mW (at 1 kHz). But that is with the Aurvana switched on. The Aurvana’s impedance is listed as 450 ohms on and 75 ohms off. Switched off, the sensitivity...
