However, color cameras sacrifice some light sensitivity and resolution because the sensor is divided among red, green, and blue filters (a Bayer matrix), which limits the amount of light each pixel captures.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>gallery categories galaxies Galaxies are a collection gases, dust billions of stars held together by gravitational forces.
