There is also a nice article on the CLA 35, a "reverse" teleconverter
that reduces the image size 2.5 times from 35mm (movie) frame size to
2/3" TV size. The effects are in reverse:
- enhanced resolution - up to 500 lp/mm
- faster speed, e.g. an f/4 becomes f/1.6
Just what we need for our Olympus lenses on the (desired) OM-digital
body. Let's see, if the sensor size is 2.4mm x 3.6mm, our f/1.4
would become f0.14! Available darkness, anyone?
