This appears as one of the specification items of Pixel Composition of a brand-new high-pixel compact digital camera. How would you translate 角 here into English? Thank you in advace.

皆様ご回答ありがとうございました。最後まで最適訳の選定には悩みましたが時間もないので、「平方の画素」と意味する「square （pixel）」を取らせていただきました。リンク先も参考させていただきました。仕様ですので pixel は恐らく省略も可能かと判断しました。pitch については調べましたが可能な範疇の訳と知りました。場所によってはその他ご提案いただいた訳もあり得るかとも思われます。

大変助かりました。ありがとうございました。

この「角」は「角形」の「角」と思います
Canonのdegital cameraのofficial specificationsを見てみましたが正方形画素のことまでは書いていませんでした。
私が通っているEOS写真教室の並木先生（デジタル写真のプロ）によると、この画素がまた三色に分かれその合成によりもろもろの色彩再現が行なわれているのだそうです。

角 pitch

Explanation:
This is the distance from pixel to pixel, not in the screen but in the image sensor.

It is actually often called \"dot pitch\", but I am reluctant to use that because some people might confuse that with the pixel to pixel distance of monitors, where the same terminology is used.
