The new KAF-31600 CCD image sensor have already been selected for use by Phase One A/S for use in their upcoming P30 digital camera back. "Our new image sensor upgrades significant the resolution available for professional photography significant, helping bring images to life in a way never before possible," said Chris McNiffe, general manager of Kodak's Image Sensor Solutions operations. "Kodak offers the broadest image sensor portfolio with the highest resolutions for medium-format photography, providing camera and camera back manufacturers great flexibility to meet the varied demands and requirements of their users."
CCD image sensor - Imaging science
A pioneer in imaging science, Kodak develops and supplies both CCD and CMOS image sensors for applications ranging from medical and industrial imaging to digital cameras and mobile phones for consumer markets. Earlier this year, Kodak announced the first CMOS image sensors to arise from its manufacturing alliance with IBM (the KAC-5000 and KAC-3100 Image Sensors), and an agreement to license key CMOS Image Sensor manufacturing technology to Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Limited (TSMC), the world's largest dedicated semiconductor foundry. When combined with the CCD announcement made today, Kodak is again demonstrating its ability to continue as a leading supplier of high-performance CCD image sensors while also providing innovative image sensors for mass-market consumer applications.
Phase One - Medium format CCD sensor
"Phase One is pushing the cutting edge of digital imaging technology for professional photographers," said Henrik Hakonsson, CEO of Phase One. "Kodak's family of medium-format CCD sensors has allowed us to offer a portfolio of state-of-the-art solutions that provide the exceptional image quality and performance that customers have come to expect from Phase One."
Hasselblad - Digital image sensor
"Kodak continues to set the standard for high-quality digital image sensors," said Christian Poulsen, CEO of Hasselblad. "Our customers paint pictures with light, requiring the ability to capture even the most delicate and subtle features of an image. The technologies and products provided by Kodak allow us to offer cameras to professional photographers that deliver on these high expectations."
