Hello John,
why have you trucate edited my comments to make
them out context? I was just commenting that
in terms of resolution, a 3Mp true color sensor
is more resolution than 10Mp bayer type sensor which
is really only 2.5Mp true color upconverted/interpolated
back up to a fake full color
and I dont see why not.

and once summed, its at a lower resoution than the rated

Hello John,
why
John,
Oh yeah, to get full luminance information
from any X megapixel sensor, all the individual
pixels have to be wideband monochrome, (no bayer
filtering). I think kodak actually made one
like this at one time, I would love one, if it
was cheap and much higher resolution than
a same Mp
IMO Foveon has a problem: marketing number.
Only those who know that megapixels isn't the only thing will consider
such a sensor.
Most poeple will notice it is not 10Mpix and will reject it pretty quickly.
Sigma tries to be different than others using Foveon and it is a good
thing from Sigma I
I'm so excited by the idea I think I just wet myself.

Hmmm...I have a creeping sense that it might be in Olympus or one (or
all) of the Four Thirds group. Didn't Sigma become part of that
group? And their goal is to build the digital camera from ground
up?

I don't see why Pentax has to stick with Sony forever. Wouldn't it be
cool if Pentax tied up with Foveon for their next DSLR sensor?
For me, one of the least appealing things in digital photography would
be to have to remember three lens crop factors instead of two.
Now, if new Foveon had the

Could indeed be interesting. But my money is on one of the four

Unless they've greatly improved on these things in recent
developments, and in addition to the MegaPixel Barrier, I think it's
too early as yet to suggest that Pentax abandon Sony's proven sensor
technology.
I thought that was the point of the Pentax/Samsung
That's way, way, w, to much information.

Godfrey,
means that, under certain circumstances, Fovean sensors have more
tendency to create moire and other Analog to Digital artifacts. Much
of which can be controlled by post-capture image processing in the
camera, of course.
that sounds interesting, do you know how?
Cheers,

Nothing has been stated about sensors. Whatr was stated id that
Samsung would bring their know-how of electronics technologies so
Pentax can more concentrate on photographic part.
Of course everybody speculated (and still does) about sensor but I
know rumors suggested Pentax could be developing
