It's sure gotta be close.... eyedesigner http://www.gfxartist.com/general/general_news/1083#2946 New Technology is never cheap wootkoos http://www.gfxartist.com/general/general_news/1083#2936 but the big question - is how much does it *cost* ?? bigrod http://www.gfxartist.com/general/general_news/1083#2912 Actually you are mistaken! It's X3 because of the extra data taken in for each pixel. This results in a sharper image with far better quality, comparable to film according to some test labs. http://www.techtv.com/products/digitalcameras/story/0,23008,3373408,00.html wootkoos http://www.gfxartist.com/general/general_news/1083#2881 Yeah, its a cool camera indeed. But its just 3,5 MP camera, NOT 10 MP. If I'd follow this calculation here (3,5x3) then my Minolta7 would be a 20 MP camera McF http://www.gfxartist.com/general/general_news/1083#2878 Foveon's technology was introduced at the PMA in Orlando this year! I'm glad to see that they already have it implemented into a camera already. The technology wasn't expected to take off until another year down the road. It's very promising in that the current chip technology for camera interpolate a majority of the data. Each pixel is only represented by either Red, Green, or Blue where as in the Foveon technology each pixel has data for each Red, Green, Blue channel. wootkoos http://www.gfxartist.com/general/general_news/1083#2876 thx for reminding me that my Canon Powershot G2 got stolen =\ louisfinazzo http://www.gfxartist.com/general/general_news/1083#2868 thats quite the amazing camera. scooter
