To be clear... the "sensor" is not affected. It is the coating on the cover
plate of glass over the sensor that is the problem.
Apparently Kodak and Leica selected a (Schott) cover plate that has a
coating on it that corrodes.
I do not know if any other camera maker selected a similar glass plate
coating.....
This was all documented in the past, and I believe the last time I tried to
find the info, it had been expunged.
