Camera manufacturers typically advertise their products by citing the resolution of their cameras' lenses, the resolution of a lens being the degree of detail the lens is capable of reproducing in the image it projects onto the film. ███████████ ███████ ███████ ██ ████ ███████ ███ ██████████ ███ █████████ ████████████ ████████ █████ ███ ██████ ██████ ███ ██ █████████ ████ ████ ███████ ███ ████ ██████ ████ ███ ████ ████ ███ ████████████ ████ ██ ███████ ██ ███████████ ██ █ █████████ ██████
The author concludes that any differences in the lens resolutions of modern cameras are “irrelevant” for practical purposes. This is supported by the statement that all modern lenses have a high enough resolution that photographic film cannot capture all the detail projected by the lens.
The author takes this support to mean that a higher-resolution lens will not lead to more detailed images on the film. But we don't actually know that for sure—to get there, the author has to assume that there aren't other ways higher resolution could lead to better images, despite the high baseline level of detail.

The author never says this. The argument focuses only on lens resolution, and doesn’t offer any information about the other differences that might exist between cameras.

This accurately describes the argument’s conclusion. The author’s claim about the effects of lens resolution on the images captured on film supports the statement that lens resolution, which advertisers focus on, makes no practical difference.

The author never tells us anything about photographic film, other than its relationship with lens resolution. We don’t know anything about how film impacts image quality, and certainly can’t say if it’s more or less important than the lens.
