US patent 20050280727 http://appft1.uspto.gov/netacgi/nph-Parser?Sect1=PTO2&Sect2=HITOFF&p=1&u=%2Fnetahtml%2FPTO%2Fsearch-bool.html&r=1&f=G&l=50&co1=AND&d=PG01&s1=20050280727&OS=20050280727&RS=20050280727 describes a sensor that groups 3 or 4 detectors ( R, G, B and luminance) under a single micro-lens:
is the new Pentax 14mp sensor for the K20D based on this patent?
-advantages seem to be no need of an AA filter and more sensitivity due the luminance detector (like the new Kodak sensor).
what do you think about it?
