Canon has unveiled a groundbreaking 410MP full-frame sensor, setting a new standard for resolution in the world of cameras. This sensor boasts an impressive 24K equivalent resolution, surpassing any previous records in the industry. The sensor’s innovative design allows for 410MP stills at up to 8fps or 100MP at 24fps, catering to surveillance, medicine, and industry applications.
In comparison to existing consumer camera sensors, such as the 61MP sensors found in cameras like the Leica SL3 and Sony A7R V, Canon’s new sensor offers unparalleled detail and speed due to its back-illuminated stacked structure. Although this cutting-edge technology may not be directly available to consumers, its potential implications are vast.
Canon’s recent advancements also include an in-camera upscale function, showcased in models like the EOS R5 Mark II, which can quadruple image resolution effectively. The combination of this upscale technology with the new 410MP sensor hints at the possibility of creating images with a resolution of 1.64 gigapixels, pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in photography.
The industry is witnessing a significant leap in camera sensor technology, with Canon leading the charge and setting new benchmarks that could revolutionize the world of imaging.
