At the heart of today’s digital imaging devices are charge-coupled devices (CCD). A type of semiconductor that’s sensitive to light, a CCD consists of a 2-D array of individual elements, each of which ...

Only two months ago, I wrote a blog entry on Kodak’s 50-Mpixel CCD still-camera sensor and the Hasselblad H3DII-50 large-format camera that first carried this sensor. Well, Kodak has just unleashed ...

Camera sources today are overwhelmingly based on either Charge-Coupled Device (CCD) or CMOS technology. Both of these technologies convert light into electrical signals, but they differ in how this ...
