Although the likelihood that all the Sony sensors were, despite being the same design, the same process iteration, is pretty low. (Maybe with the 10.5, given that Pentax got ahold of them relatively late in the thing's life. But I'd be disinclined to bet on it.) So it's really very hard to tell which is *really* the same sensor chip. -- Graydon -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
