Second part of the FS7 4K FE camcorder review at TheCameraStoreTV.

Share



The second part of the big FS7 review really proves how Sony is capable of learning and listening to create a superb camcorder. It’s an almost perfect camera as stated by the TCSTV team.


I do hope Sony will put the same kind of effort when developing cameras. So please Sony, make us a nice Sony A9 that really suits for pro photography! :)

Tamron patent discloses a new 28-320mm f/3.5-6.3 Full Frame E-mount lens.

tamronFE


This would be certainly good news if they would make it for real! A brand new Tamron patent shows the design of the new 28-320mm f/3.5-6.3 Full Frame E-mount lens. It could become a cheaper and more broader zoom range lens compared to the Sony 24-240mm f/3.5-6.3 OSS that will ship in March 2015. I hope they make it!


Patent found via Egami.

Sony makes Photon Counting Pixel sensor.

Share


Sony single-photon pixel-3


Sony has a new idea to improve the image quality at very low light conditions. They propose a new tech that actually counts every single photo hitting the sensor:


since a pixel signal is extremely weak when weak light is detected, it is desirable to reflect electrons generated from photoelectric conversion on intensity of the pixel signal while losing as few electrons as possible. In general, however, when electrons generated in a photodiode are transferred to a floating diffusion, carriers (electrons) are doped at an interface level generated due to a defect present on a gate oxide film interface (interface defect) of a transfer transistor.


there is provided an image sensor including pixels each configured to include a transfer transistor configured as an embedded channel type MOS transistor and to output a pixel signal based on a charge transferred to a floating diffusion from a photodiode by the transfer transistor in an on state, and a determination unit configured to convert the output pixel signal to a digital value, then compare the converted digital value to a threshold value, and thereby make a binary determination on presence or absence of incidence of a photon on the pixel that has generated the pixel signal. Accordingly, the image sensor that makes a binary determination on presence or absence of incidence of a photon on a pixel exhibits the effect of reducing influence of an interface state on the transfer transistor.


We don’t know yet how big the improvement is. But maybe the day is not far away we will get a new A7sX with 1 million ISO :)
