Toshiba's 1.12 micrometer pixel CMOS sensor launched

Cameras on phones have come a long way since they were first introduced; from being able to capture photos in VGA to a whopping 8 megapixels that we are starting to see in some of the newer smartphones today. Most photography experts will tell you that the megapixels don't really matter, and it's usually a marketing gimmick used to sell cameras, unless of course you are looking to print poster/billboard sized photographs. Now it seems that Toshiba has launched a new 1.12 micrometer pixel CMOS image sensor that boasts the industry's smallest level pixel size.
