18.8 / 56.4 Million Pixels Foveon Camera can be a reality NOW.

Hello there !

I have a little and complex idea to render a file with a far bigger quality than the SD1 but in a complex way

Here is my idea, who can be achieved with your help and the help of Richard Franiec :

The idea of a super studio, landscape and architectural camera, who beat the regurgitated crap who is the SD1, came to me at the start of the week. I really think it is possible to build it, every one of us, but there is some few questions who remain shady for me, on an optical and sensor point of view.

You will see 4 DP2x connected and orientated to cover the maximum of frame possible, some angles need to be calculated for that. For example, if we are in studio shooting a closeup portrait, the face should be spited on each screens and the frames should cover slightly.

All the DP minus one are geared with the Franiec's release adaptatorz and a customized one to free one flash socket. All the cables are grouped in one simple mechanical actuator.

Once you shoot, each camera will record her own part of the picture. Then you unload your 4 SD cards, process it in SPP, export tiff 16 bit and stitch it in Autopano pro and save it at tiff 16 bits.

The cheapest medium format ever on this planet.

What do you think about that ?

you have a lot of homework Richard now, especially for the support of the DP, who need to be orientated as much as we want for frame covering.
