note for myself, start saving money...

 

 

I don't think it would be outrageously expensive. The nice thing about this sensor is, that you don't even need BSI infastructre since you "only" put the organic layer on a FSI sensor.  

 

The thing I like most about this sensor is the new microlens design that allows for 60 degree angle of incidence.

Is this still a joint venture with Fujifilm? Because I can't seem to find something suggesting this in the current press release. And, apart from the initial information a couple of years ago, there's no mention of Fuji regarding the organic sensor. Do we have any other indication that they are still on board?

 

Edit: a quick google search revealed this rumor:

which, as I understand, will greatly improve performance with the so called heritage lenses.

Not only that. Fast lenses would benefit from it too. (And Fuji has a lot of those) 

 

By the way, do we know if they will use it for their medium format camera?

 

I don't think we will see this tech before 2018-2020.

I am really looking forward to this new sensor.

 

Unfortunately it will take some time from the press release to the actual product.

Maybe this sensor will be built into the X-Pro3 if it takes another four years to develop it.

 

Maybe what's even more important: this breaks the felt monopoly of high quality sensors from Sony.

Can anybody explain what exactly they mean by "global shutter" in this press release? Is it a fully electronic mechanism w/o the disadvantages of the current tech?

Yes. It means that every single pixel is read out (electronically) at the same time. So no rolling shutter and other shutter problems.

      X-s10 with Fujinon 16mm 1.4 autofocus issue

      By Etienne B · Posted

      Hello. I have a x-s10 that I use multiple lenses with. Yesterday I noticed that with the Fujinon 16mm lens I'm having issues auto-focusing. It works on video but not for still images. When I half press the button it focuses a bit then when I release the button it snaps back to the previous focus point. Even though it manages to focus the image is still blurry. Any ideas please. I already did a a major google search and nobody has mentioned this issue. Thanks, Etienne

      By mapoett · Posted

      Hello. Thankyou,now Is all more clear: I have take some time in your link. Let tell you. I has totaly forget this machine have "compress picture option" and not Only "compress lossless" anyway not change the experiment. RAW  and this last two format look like same result about Number of recording picture. Can tell all results in this: in raw you can make 17 pictures for second. Is wrong. Is about One single Press and wait buffer. Full 30/20/10/8 not change. After 17 Need Press again. You not can Press before "redgreen light recording Is on".   With preshot you can have 25  are more 7 pictures . The story change Only in jpg shot only. In jpg at 30 you have 30 picture but redgreen light off very Fast so you can shot very quicly. At 20 shot Is about start look like infinite shot. 60. So the best performance are this last One  about Speed and recording picture after camera working witout big limit. I want take a shot about Italy cyclet Just for passion. I think i Will use this last setting.  After Need check when battery not are full change and ambient temp.  Anyway my cam look like exactly specific about you link. Im Happy my cam working perfectly.
