1.7 Did You Know?
Photographic film has the clear advantage of recording extremely fine spatial detail, since individual silver halide molecules can
record light sensitivity differently than their neighbouring molecules. But when it comes to spectral and radiometric qualities, digital
sensors outperform film, by being able to use extremely fine spectral bands (for spectral 'fingerprinting' of targets), and recording
up to many thousands of levels of brightness.
