Sorry it took so long to answer this (been sick).

Lets make this really simple. Take three scenarios:

1: The four sensor chip we've been discussing so far (GRGB).

2: A beam splitter with three monochrome chips of the same size as above.

3: One chip with twice the density (each pixel position contains full RGB info).

You're saying that scenario 1 will produce the BEST image?

Well, you have 5 years head start on me. I'm also a professional engineer and have been designing high-end embedded systems (yes, even digital imaging systems) for about 15 years. I do (design and implementation) software for them, not hardware, but I think I'm still qualified to discuss this issue.

I don't question that you're qualified for this and I find your posts on the Piezo list very informative. But I don't agree that the current crop of consumer/prosumer CCD chips is the best solution. The most cost-effective maybe, but it's still cheating!
