Well folks we all know that yesterday (06-10-2009) world of physics got three more crowns. One for the groundbreaking achievements concerning the transmission of light in fibre for optical communication and another for the invention of an imaging semiconductor circuit – the CCD (Charge Coupled Device) sensor.
Well coming to the introduction of CCD, CCD technology was invented by Nobel Prize winners Willard Boyle and George E. Smith at AT&T Bell Labs, in 1969.
So let me take you to the next level of these winners.
Super CCD is an advanced version of CCD and has been developed by Fujifilm in the early 90’s. It allows higher horizontal and vertical resolution. It uses Octagonal pixels rather than rectangular pixels.
Fujifilm further developed this Super CCD to Super CCD HR and Super CCD SR. HR stands for High Resolution and SR stands for Super Dynamic Range.
In mid 2005 Fujifilm came up with 5th Generation Super CCD HR sensor cameras, the FinePix S5200 and S9000.
And in 2006 Fuji introduced 6h generation of Super CCD Sensor Cameras - F40fd, FinePix S6500fd etc.
In 2008 they introduced new Super CCD sensor, the Super CCD EXR.
