Frank, this seems to be a key point in your analysis. I believe it does not answer the question because an integration of light is not the same as "at the same time". "at the same time" is instantaneous, while an integration is an accumulation over a time period. For an exposure time of 1/8000 sec the integration time period can be 1/250 sec with a slit shutter limiting the exposure to any particular pixel to 1/8000 sec, so IMHO the results of your thought-experiment are inconclusive. respectfully, Doug Herr Birdman of Sacramento http://www.wildlightphoto.com
