Good question, Mark. This is pure speculation on my part, but in
conventional photography, it has the potential to give a Pentax -
using a conventional bayer sensor - the IQ advantages of a Foveon
sensor with none of the Foveon's disadvantages (like noise at higher
ISOs). I am imagining is the mirr
Interesting - would this also be of advantage outside of
asrtophotography? Maybe more detail in landscape and macro photography?

The new Olympus M5 mark ii already does this sensor shift to produce high res
images.

Sorry, hit send before I meant to. You *need* to watch the first 9:55
of the video link in the previous email to understand what this
technology can do. It has nothing to do with coatings (as the article

Sometimes silence speaks volumes.
On March 14th, I sent Asahi Man (on DPReview Pentax SLR forum) a
