I like my dinky little MX716 camera because it reads out all 361 K
pixels in about 5 seconds. The readout time on that Fairchild beast
is 5.6 minutes. Heck, you could almost develop a roll of film in that
time. Besides, what do you do with 15 micron pixels?

can you imagine a 3+ inches per side 81 megapixel sensor?

Zowie, that must be one expensive chip.
