What about sensors size?

[status-kuo]

The reviews are great, but I think it will be of use to have the size of the CCD/CMOS sensor on the "details" of the camera to be reviewed; that's for the folks who are worried of the noise/sensors size ratio and also speaks of the quality of the camera.

To be clear, some of the review makes clear the size of the CCD/CMOS (like the full-frame Canon 5D). But the nice thing would be considering the size of all models.

Thanks.

The sample pictures are more than enough to see the amount of noise the camera produces. Jeff does a good job of showing the same image at different ISO's. For most users interested in point and shoots, sensor size is irrelevant. DSLR's usually have sensor size's listed because it is much more important to the users (mostly because the size of the sensor affects the focal length of the lenses that are attached).
If you are really interested in finding out the sensor size just go to www.bhphotovideo.com search for the camera you want and you can find the sensor size there.

At some point I would like to add sensor size as a field in the database, but I just don't have time for that right now...

Yes you are right, the sample pictures are great for measuring if the camera will do it's job, but is nice to have the sensor CCD size. It's not just useful for the conversion factor of lens, it's also useful for the measurement of the camera quality. Why it's so important the brand of the memory it today videocards? or it's nanoseconds? It's useful.

Anyway if it's too much truble, it not necesary to do it.
I don't want to disturb, i just want to put my 2 cents.

Thanks.
