The LX3 is far larger and has a less useful zoom range despite its speed.The thing is that for this price you could get a LX3.
I presume it sets half the sensors to as slightly different sensitivity. So the high dynamic range images are half the pixel size.Is it obvious to everyone else how this camera takes 2 images at the same time?I dont quite get it.Or is it just taking one and inventing the other.
In a way isn't that how a foveon sensor works?wouldn't it be interesting if someone made a camera that had a prism in it to split the image into 3, so it could have 3 separate sensors each with one color filter and hence no need for bayer interpolation, and having 3 sensors instead one could improve dynamic range and sensor noise!
I know they have done this with Video cameras, denoted with "3 CCD" but why not on a digital camera.

Im sure youre right Will,but as it can only take one image then the other is a copy using the unused sensors,if its a copy why not use the 12 and copy 12?Would be nice to see an explanation of all this.All will soon be revealed Im sure.I presume it sets half the sensors to as slightly different sensitivity. So the high dynamic range images are half the pixel size.
