To resolve the full pixels of the sensor, you take the horizontal pixels divided by twice the horizontal millimeters to get line-pairs/millimeter needed from the lens. The problem is fundamental, inherent to the sensor size.

A fairer method would be to publish independent MTF lp/mm scores as a measure of a lenses sharpness. There are several manufacturer's that market lenses that way however. Some say that calling a lens a 6K lens is a marketing gimmick, there's a lot more to an image than resolution. If they do then the image from much cheaper MFT camera with a high quality lens, upscaled to 6K will blow that 6K image away. An M4/3 camera might have suited you as well at a far lower lens and storage media cost otherwise.Ī lot of people think that since it's an EF mount camera, they can use that old Canon 18-55mm kit lens that was designed back in the 90's for dads that wanted something cheap to shoot their kids on a much lower resolution camera. To take full advantage of the resolving power of a 6K sensor you should have a super sharp lens, otherwise you're wasting your money shooting at those high bitrates and not getting the detail.

What is your deliverable resolution? Will you be doing VFX work or extensive processing in post? You didn't mention what type of films you will be shooting or your budget.
