Marcel,
The precision between the 50mm len on a 10 mp camera vs. a sextant is simply comparing the minimum of 0.1 moa on the sextant's micrometer drum with the 0.4 moa of a single pixel width for the 50mm / 10 mp camera system. Practical accuracy between the camera and sextant seem to be very close in spite of the precision difference.
