Patent: A Few More Image Sensor Patents from Canon
- Thread starter Canon Rumors
- Start date
Has anyone in this thread said any different? The discussion (of this thread, anyhow) is whether the Sonikon sensors are better enough at low ISO to force Canon to make a "big leap forward in performance" for upcoming bodies.infared said:

Fandoig all you want... Nikon and Sony have better sensors.
Feel free to lift your leg and pee into the wind some more!!!
Come back when people start buying bare silicon sensors, at that point your comment might be relevant.
Until then, don't stand downwind.

John, that's offensive to those of us who do cave photography. And, since when is profit and market share the most important aspect to the success of a business?

For now. Today. Canon will surpass them, then they will surpass Canon. Then Canon will beat them again. On and on it will go.
I'm too busy learning my Canon cameras to be concerned with that though. If I ever master them... then maybe I'll waste my time salivating at the grass on the other side of the fence (Or if I win the PowerBall lottery).

Nobody is saying it can't happen some day. It's just the problem is, is that it's not even starting to happen. In fact, just the opposite. The only possible conclusion is, or ok ONE conclusion, is that the market doesn't give a crap at all about more DR at low ISO. I know that it's hard to accept that as Sonikon increases DR at low ISO Canon's market share keeps increasing. Maybe they care more about AF, lenses, speedlites, and service. Maybe they just want something, a system, that works. Hard to explain I know.

Faith is belief that contradicts evidence. I have no faith in Canon. I've only stated that they have a history of finding a way to stay competitive. That's not faith, that's history. Will they continue? We'll see.
If you can predict when large companies are set to fail you can make serious bank in the stock market; maybe you should try that.

Who (besides you, that is) is discussing 'permanent faith'? Today, Canon is the clear market leader – by a wide margin, and they've led the market for >11 years. Those facts are completely incongruent with the suggestion that Canon must 'make a big leap forward' in FF sensors, with an implied 'or else'.
Their nearest competitor is losing ground, and for all the forum DRoning about Sony's awesomagical sensors, in the camera market (you know...the things people buy), 3rd place Sony has 'eroded' less than 3% of Canon's 30% lead in market share - not even a meaningful change.

Your donut does not change the facts.

Who appointed you the forum police?
I will post what I want to say on this sensor thread.
Do you have control issues? LOL!
Please read what I just posted.
(Did I mention that the Sony and Nikon sensors are better than the Canon sensor right now?)

Canon's sensor technology is beginning to look like Tom Cruise, an aging film star with less earning potential each year!
