John the sensor does NOT output bits, a CCD only outputs analog signal and thiat is why 22 bit capture is important. Even if tyou conver down to 16/12/8 bits later.
If you want a sensor which outputs bits, you need a CMOS. A CCD does NOT and will never output bits. -- Thibault Massart aka Thibouille ---------------------- *ist-D,Z1,SuperA,KX,MX, P30t and KR-10x ;) ... -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
