70 Mpix on CMOS announced

Hi Esben

You know the problem with ideas is - once they are out of the bottle mens mind is a powerful source, many people have a lot of time for thinking and nowadays there are plenty of intelligent people on this planet (well probably not intelligent enough to stop pollution and berzerk Banks and Investors....) - so take a look here:

You thought about it, so did someone else...........

It´s getting even more interesting now:

"........the sensor quality of Fujifilm X mirrorless will exceed that of current full-frame sensors, although its sensor size will likely be smaller than 24x36mm......."

Maybe soon we will not talk about evolution of CMOS but about new sensor concepts ?

Luckily for all of us, the world is going to melt before all of this is solved, lol

Interesting banter, gentlemen... keep it up.

I still struggle with whether I'm comfortable with the whole shift between digital- versus mechanical-society. All of this improvement in tech that makes image taking so ubiquitous really saps a lot of my energy in the name of "hurry up and get out there before someone else does".

I guess, as much as I enjoy tech, I wish that these "improvements" wouldn't roll out so quickly such that I feel I'm learning a new craft all the time. Every time I get to the point that my art begins to sing, the craft changes and I have to play catch-up again.

hmmm...

And here is already a possible candidate for this Fuji chip : LEICA !

It´s a war out there, I also think technology is now evolving a t a speed which makes even short frame decisions harder, mid term very difficult and long term only a vague estimation.

Really, this is still going on? I think all mentions of Leica need an exclamation point: LEICA!

I think a little ● is more appropriate.
I am afraid to ask for a black one lest they charge more for it.
