I think it is reasonable to expect a little banter... The tongue-pulling face is an indicator that a tongue-in-cheek comment has just been made. Bit ironic that...

You will get a "port hole" effect where the image captured by the 1/3 inch lens dosn't cover the whole of the 1/2 inch CCD chip e.g. a black area around the edge of the TV screen.

This is mostly correct but this "Port Hole" effect will only happen if it is a fixed lens eg 4mm. If you are using a varifocal lens then this will not happen all the time, it will only happen when you are using it in it's wider settings.

I hope this has helped.
