Re: Some SD9 Color Accuracy Numbers

I have heard that the SD14 is calibrated at an individual camera level. If that is the case, I'm not sure whether that calibration works with Lightroom/Camera Raw? Anyone know?

In some Foveon data sheets the sensor chip connections are shown and there are a great many inputs with really abstruse names, apart from the digital ones. They must be for either "calibrating" or "configuring" the sensor - but I don't know where the source values are stored. They can't be in the firmware, otherwise all SD14s would be the same.

They could be buried in each "TRUE" processor per camera - which lends credence to the other story that you can't just fix a dead sensor by replacing it by one from another camera ...
