So is the case in Europe.
We use metric system but screen sizes are still inches. Wierd huh ?

On bicycles, every nut, bolt, or threaded fixture is, and has been for many years, metric. Everything except the pedals which are either 1/2" or 9/16".

The 1600 MP measurement is based on Whitworth standard units, and works better on old tripods.

Why not APS-H?

As the 1600 mpx mystery is solved isn't it time to close this before it goes astray??

well it looked like an anourmous amount of megapixels to put on a tiny APS-H sensor.
