2. Image sensor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_sensor

   A micrograph of the corner of the photosensor array of a webcam digital camera Image sensor (upper left) on the motherboard of a Nikon Coolpix L2 6 MP. The two main types of digital image sensors are the charge-coupled device (CCD) and the active-pixel sensor (CMOS sensor), fabricated in complementary MOS (CMOS) or N-type MOS (NMOS or Live MOS) technologies.

3. Image sensor format - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_sensor_format

   Because the image sensors in many digital cameras are smaller than the 24 mm × 36 mm image area of full-frame 35 mm cameras, a lens of a given focal length gives a narrower field of view in such cameras. Sensor size is often expressed as optical format in inches. Other measures are also used; see table of sensor formats and sizes below.

4. Charge-coupled device - Wikipedia

   CCD from a 2.1-megapixel Argus digital camera One-dimensional CCD image sensor from a fax machine. The CCD image sensors can be implemented in several different architectures. The most common are full-frame, frame-transfer, and interline. The distinguishing characteristic of each of these architectures is their approach to the problem of ...

5. sCMOS - Wikipedia

   Comparison - CCD vs. sCMOS technology; lower figure compares a scientific grade CCD (left) and a pco.edge camera with sCMOS sensor (on the right) under similar weak illumination conditions. This demonstrates the superiority of sCMOS over CCD with regards to read out noise and dynamic, without smear (the vertical lines in the CCD image).

6. Active-pixel sensor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Active-pixel_sensor

   In three-sensor camera systems that use separate sensors to resolve the red, green, and blue components of the image in conjunction with beam splitter prisms, the three CMOS sensors can be identical, whereas most splitter prisms require that one of the CCD sensors has to be a mirror image of the other two to read out the image in a compatible ...

7. List of digital cameras with CCD sensors - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_digital_cameras...

   Some liken CCD to slide film (also known as positive film) and CMOS to negative film. [36] While there were larger CCD sensors made for interchangeable-lens cameras, such as the Leica M9, CCD sensors in fixed-lens cameras maxed out at 2/3″ (1/1.5″). Premium compact cameras of the time contained sensors around 1/1.7″ in size, whereas entry ...
