111-Megapixel CCD Chip Ships

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the inspect-gooseflesh dept.

georgewilliamherbert writes "EETimes is reporting that Dalsa has shipped a record-breaking 111-megapixel CCD image sensor to customer Semiconductor Technology Associates. The chip was paid for by a U.S. Navy SBIR project. At four inches across, a bit big for camera phones, but the 10560x10560 format will probably get professional digital camera users drooling."

    .....put it at 300-500 megapixels......

    Thanks for posting that link. I knew the resolution and other characteristics of our eyes were rather good, but never knew the details as related to photography. According to that site, the human eye is still almost five times better than this new chip. Can anyone still believe that the human eye was not DESIGNED by someone who knows just a little about optics and the properties of light?
