current	16:00, 24 January 2017	500 × 700 (28 KB)	Lucasbosch	The full frame part on top didn't contain a sensor (beige rectangle) like the others. I added such a rectangle to replace the empty frame on top.
	13:40, 24 January 2017	500 × 700 (28 KB)	Lucasbosch	Tyographic improvements: 1. correct quote marks 2. small space before unit smybols 3. no spaces around times (×) symbol 4. correct inch symbol (double prime) 5. tilde ~ -> ≈

	08:22, 5 August 2014	500 × 700 (28 KB)	MarcusGR	Removed 'medium format' and added 2/3'' format. Updated info on camera makers employing sensors.
	18:12, 4 August 2014	500 × 700 (30 KB)	Moxfyre	update by {{ping\|marcusgr}} borks transparency and otherwise renders poorly -- revert to previous
	10:20, 1 August 2014	484 × 610 (117 KB)	MarcusGR	Added 2/3'' format and removed Medium Format. Updated info about brands adopting sensors.
	17:48, 4 October 2011	500 × 700 (30 KB)	Jesh	Added Nikon CX size (Nikon 1 system). Removed redundant 35mm grey frame to make space.
	12:57, 4 December 2010	500 × 700 (23 KB)	Jason Quinn	Changed KAF 3900 to KAF 39000. This seems to have been a mistake.
	21:33, 1 June 2009	500 × 700 (30 KB)	Moxfyre	made the dimensions exactly match the text, and also point out the Nikon (DX), Pentax, and Sony APS-C are basically the same size [using an external editor]

	17:20, 4 January 2009	500 × 700 (29 KB)	Inductiveload	Changed flowed text to simple unflowed text boxes - should now render perfectly well. Also changed font to Dejavu Sans as this is known to be supported. Filled the rectangles light grey to make the image clearer.
