I wish Canon would license the X3 technology. Superior to Bayer filters, IMO.

could be debated. what cant be is that canon is at 16mp while foveon is still at 3 (output). in this case, MP matters.

Yep, if you count photodetector locations, but the X3 tech puts 3 colors in each pixel "spot" on the chip.

Oh well, the only thing that matters in the end is ultimate image quality at the desired image size.

This article (2000) says that no pixels could be on 8 feet x 4 feet prints taken with a foveon based camera. It says that the foveon is 16MP.

What?

One hell of a bump, though. :beer:

That wireless doohickey looks nice. My mother is a pro photographer, we use canons (we have an EOS-1D Mk. II and a 1D (we don't need the added resolution of the s series for wedding photography, we still use our medium format hasselblad film cameras for portriat work)).


Anywho, we burn through cards like made, we have 12+ 1gb cf cards, and on some larger jobs we will be close to runnin gout of space . . . The wireless would be fantastic.
