As Pauline Hansen once famounsly said "Please explain!". Knowing that I will display my ignorance, I'm trying to get my head around the 'pixel-size' as a determinant of suitability. What is the correlation between pixel size and FL or Objective diameter? What makes one pixel size more suitable to a particular scope than another?
