Kodak Release A Sensor for The Broadcast Market
Kodak's sensor business is alive and well and now in our industry. They are now just about to ship a 1920x1080 / 60p (max'd out) Interline CCD sensor in a two third inch format for the broadcast market and of course other markets like the medical and even traffic monitoring worlds.
We don't announce new sensors very often but Kodak's news will excite maybe new camera manufacturers and interest existing ones with the inherent quality that Kodak brings. Kodak has confirmed that next year new cameras featuring the sensors will appear. Apart from Sony, Panavision or Dalsa those cameras could come from anyone.
To Kodak CMOS sensors are for the consumer market and it was never a consideration for their KAI-02150 sensor. They quote their low noise levels, high dynamic range and robustness (their sensors are circling Mars at present) in their 'We're better because' list.
The sensor is based on the Kodak Truesense 5.5 micron Interline Transfer CCD platform which was announced last year.
Asked if they are working on a 4k sensor for movie production Kodak said that they were not but pointed out that they let the camera manufacturers announce their products themselves, so they could be supplying anyone with their sensors...
