Canon Full-Frame White Paper

Canon 17-85

Many people that shoot with a Canon remark on their ability to capture at high ISO settings with low noise. This is especially true on the 5D, which uses a full-frame sensor.

I came across this white paper some time ago and found it interesting. There is lots of Canon marketing speak in there, but there is also a lot of interesting technical details about CMOS sensors in general, and about Canon’s full-frame sensor.

Edit: I should clarify that I am talking about Canon’s digital SLR cameras high ISO performance.

    ISO claims, by the by, do most assuredly not apply to the S3 IS.

    Grr.

    I should have said, “Many people that shoot with a Canon digital SLR”. Their point and shoot cameras (even the higher end ones) are not good at high ISO.

    To be clear, the “grr” was not directed at you; just general grumpyness about the camera. I miss my Easyshares.

    I understood the “grr”. No worries. :-)
