I have always been a Canon owner but the 800E has me considering a change as I have not upgrade for some time. The new Sony sensors are very nice although it is surprising that Sony don't use the 36MP version in their SLR (maybe that is to come? or licensed only to Nikon?).
The Kodak Truesense Chips are still referred to by Kodak as a "Bayer" Filter Chip. They have basically taken the standard Bayer Filter Matrix and added a "Clear" pixel that accepts all wavelengths. Luminance which in the past was information on the Green pixel in now only captured on the new "Clear" pixel. Chrominance data is captured across Red, Blue and Green pixels. There is a trade off that Chrominance now represents 50% of the data and luminance is 50% as well. In the standard Bayer 100% the data is Chrominance.
