剛剛看一下說全幅的以為是135幅, 結果現在才知道是36X48mm. 這應該是叫作中幅CCD吧?

引文:

差不多是645 / 1.3x
但即使是645 Digital. 50MP也創新高了....之前做到39MP嘛

FullFrame不是一般講的全幅
是Kodak研發的一種CCD

轉成135相機習慣的語言
該算是一種自定義又不貶身價的DX格式吧
儘管沒有達到645舊鏡頭全片幅

引文:

現行機背印象裡應該都是1.3x
這樣也好
起碼邊緣畫質的問題可以減輕些
然後廠商可以再出新鏡....

這裡的FullFrame
應該是指之前幫E-1做的那種 Full-frame transfer CCD 吧

這裡的FullFrame應該是指Kodak四個產品線之中最高級的一種的名稱。
當初取這個名，應該就是指開口率開到最大的意思。

關於Full Frame一辭，

Kodak Achieves New Breakthrough in Imaging Technology
World's First 50 Megapixel CCD Sensor Sets New Standard for Professional Photographers

ROCHESTER, N.Y., July 8 -- Eastman Kodak Company (NYSE:EK) has achieved another breakthrough in its storied history of imaging technology innovation with the introduction of the world’s first 50 million pixel CCD image sensor for professional photography.

At 50 million pixels, or megapixels, the sensor captures digital images with unprecedented resolution and detail. For instance, with a 50 megapixel camera, in an aerial photo of a field 1-½ miles across, you could detect an object about the size of a small notebook computer (1 foot by 1 foot).

What’s more, the KODAK KAF-50100 Image Sensor features a newly designed pixel that is smaller in size than the pixel used in current products for this professional market. This new pixel also reduces “click-to-capture” time for improved camera response, lowers power consumption for improved battery life, and improves color fidelity without compromising on the benefits to be enjoyed from larger pixel sizes.

"Professional photographers need to capture ever-increasing image detail with higher camera performance, and that to drives us to develop new technologies and products to serve this important market,” said Michael Miller, manager of Kodak’s CCD Image Sensor Business, part of the company’s Image Sensor Solutions group. “Kodak image sensors have been known as the professional imaging standard for years, and today's announcement reaffirms our dedication to provide industry-leading image sensors that give professional photographers a real competitive advantage.”

The new Kodak sensor is the first to utilize the company’s new KODAK TRUESENSE 6.0 micron Full Frame CCD Technology Platform, which increases both the resolution and camera performance available to photographers. Based on a newly designed 6.0 micron pixel, the platform provides increased data throughput for faster frame rate, a reduced “click to capture” time for improved camera response, lower power consumption for improved battery life, and improved color fidelity, while still retaining key performance parameters available from the larger, 6.8 micron pixel used in current products. With an 8176 x 6132 pixel array, the 50 million pixel sensor provides the highest resolution available in the popular 48 mm x 36 mm optical format used in medium format photography.

The KAF-50100 is the latest addition to Kodak’s family of full-frame CCD image sensors for the professional photography market. Engineering grade devices of the KAF-50100 are currently available, with volume production planned for Q4, 2008.
