Looks like it's finally become a reality.
Monochrome version only at this point. 6.7 MP, 4.7 x 5.5 inch capture area. $26,000.

Amazing news. Was wandering how to burn this $26k pocket change myself.

6.7 megapixels? Wow, that's almost as much as an obsolete cell phone camera...
"I love my Verito lens, but I always have to sharpen everything in Photoshop..."
Plenty for your Petzval...
I’m trying to understand the technical benefit. Is it that with such large pixels you get a very high native sensitivity/very low noise?
I’m also confused by how the colour version will work. How much “effective” resolution will you get if you only start with 6.7MP monochrome?
Not that I could afford this thing anyway even if it turns out to be awesome, but anyway.
Just curious, the example pics on the linked URL shows that a Schneider Kreuznach G-Claron 9/305
has swirly bokeh like a petzval ?
Anyone know what the sensor specs are? Is it appropriated from some other piece of equipment? X-Ray machine perhaps? Given the size and resolution could it be a smaller sensor connected with a fiber array to the focal plane?
From the linked page:
Specifications:
- 4.7 x 5.5 inch high sensitivity, large pixel digital sensor
- 6.7 Mega Pixels - 6,720,000 pixels
- 50-micron pixel size (these are very large)
- Live view for easy focusing
- WiFi for remote viewing and control
- Video mode with an optional 1920 x 1080. Up to 28 fps. Video output options TIFFs, DNGs, CinemaDNG, JPEGs, h.264
- 14-bit AD
- No CFA, no AA, and no micro lenses. This allows large movements without affecting edge image quality.
- Output to DNG, TIFF, and JPEG
- Media: SD card slot, USB 3.1 external drive, internal 1,500 GB SSD
- Tethered operation, by CAT5 cable or WiFi
- The sensor plane is around 22mm behind what would be the film plan for the Graflok model. This may affect SLRs, but assumed not mirrorless cameras.
- Dust - The sensor is large and can pick up dust. It is easy to remove the bellows and clean the sensor. Also, an FFC frame can be taken before a photo session, which works very well in removing most dust. The FFC frame is incorporated into the camera software.
- All specifications subject to change
