Canon gör sensor med 250 megapixel
Canon har utvecklat en sensorprototyp i aps-h-storlek med 250 miljoner pixlar. Sensorn fungerar både för stillbild och video.
Aps-h-formatet innebär att sensorn är 29,2 x 20,2 mm stor. Pixelproportionerna är 19 580 x 12 600 pixlar.
Canon ser främst en användning inom övervakning och som mätinstrument i industriell utrustning. Under ett test gjorde upplösningen det möjligt att läsa texten på en flygplanskropp på 18 kilometers avstånd. Särskiljandet av bildens innehåll gjordes via förstoring av ett område som var ca 1/40 000 av den tagna bilden.
