Yeah just when Sony has started to put out some high end astro sensors with very high QE and super low noise.

I was hoping they would bring out an APSc sized sensor version of the ICX694/814/834 family.

But per that article the crossover from CCD to more advanced CMOS has already happened. It just hasn't filtered down to our uses.

Lets hope the True Sense CCDs continue as they seem to be sold around a bit and a tad unstable. If you go to the new owners website, all those Kodak CCDs are some totally minor drop menu in a more vast set of menu items on their website. So it does not seem to be a big part of their business at all.

Greg.
