I specifically need the pixel size (WxH) in microns of the sensor on my Nikon D7100 so I can add my camera (D7100) to equipment for astrophotography.  If anyone can, convert or knows of, senf a reply with the conversion, I would be so grateful.  Thanks in advance.

If you find a converter, make sure that it gives the pixel dimensions and not simply the pixel pitch.

Isn't the D7100 already in the astronomy.tools database with a pixel size set to 3.90µ?
