Kodak Introduces 50-Megapixel CCD
July 9, 2008
Sorry Kodak 
Professional photographers will soon be able to take shots at an astounding 8176 x 6132 resolution with Kodak’s record-breaking image sensor.
Professional photographer, no resolution is ever really “enough” has been answered by Kodak on Tuesday with the introduction of the world’s first 50-megapixel CCD for professional cameras, the KAF-50100, which takes photos in a staggering 8176 x 6132 resolution.
Kodak claims that if an aerial photograph of a field 1.5 miles across were taken with the sensor, viewers would be able to pick out an object like a small notebook computer.
Besides its record-breaking resolution, the KAF-50100 has been optimized for a number of other important photographic factors as well, such as increased data throughput for faster frame rate, a reduced “click-to-capture” time for improved camera response, lower power consumption, and improved color fidelity.
