MV-SC6016M
No loss of resolution, frame rate, or line rate
The compared resolution values and the frame or line rate are no lower than the original model's; pixel size matches.
The sensor part number is not confirmed in this comparison: we compare by resolution, pixel size, frame or line rate and interface.
With the same lens and working distance, on the full frame, the field of view changes: +10 % in width, 0 % in height. A larger image circle is required — check that the existing lens covers the active area.
