[Leica] KODAK SUPER SENSITIVITY

[tedgrant at shaw.ca (Ted Grant)]

Great news for available light shooters:

In a press release this morning KODAK has developed a new element of
sensitivity making present sensors twice as sensitive to "light-image"
capture.

It will be available to all camera manufacturers with a look at installation
in cell phone camera types first for mass market.

They claim taking pictures on the streets of Paris at midnight if one wishes
without the use of flash.

Or a child blowing out birthday candles on a cake without blurring.

I'll be interesting to see how far and who'll incorporate the new technology
into which mainline pro cameras first. Hello Mr. Leica are you listening?:-)
