If the Human Eye was a Digital Camera and Lens, what would its Specifications be?

 ie

  • How many megapixels would it have?
  • What would its resolution (dpi) be?
  • What would its ISO range be?
  • What would its colour depth be?
  • What is its focal length? How does it's field of view and depth of field compare to a standard 50mm lens?
  • The eye doesn't zoom, but does the brain do any of this for us? Its seems like it when concentrating on something or if something attracts our attention.
  • At what speed can an object pass the eye before it appears blurred? Ie "shutter speed" equivalent.
  • How many "frames per second" can it process?
  • I believe the brain compensates for white balance? Does the eye have a natural "default" white balance setting which the brain then compensates for?

Someone figured out how to make HDR video.

An underexposed and an overexposed image combined into one"

This process gets near the incredible latitude of the human eye
