Claim One:
1. A camera assembly, comprising: a sensor assembly that includes an image capture component and an image alignment component, the image alignment component having higher effective resolution than the image capture component; and a controller that controls the generation of an output photograph, the controller configured to: control the sensor assembly to capture at least two images; identify at least one alignment feature in image data corresponding to a first of the images; identify the at least one alignment feature in the image data from the image alignment component and corresponding to a second one of the images and determine an offset between the first and second images from corresponding locations of the alignment feature in the first and second images; align the first and second images to remove offset corresponding to an integer multiple of a predetermined pixel pitch and leave an offset amount corresponding to a residual fraction of the pixel pitch; and combine the image data from the image capture component for the first image with the image data from the image capture component for the second image.
