A masterpiece in the making.A agship is born

Have digital camerasbecome boring?

Has digital camera technologyreached maturity? Or is it just thatno real innovations have appearedin so long. Certainly, the digitalcamera ront has o ered little to getexcited about in recent years.

This observation, shared by mostphotography enthusiasts, is a air,i harsh, judgment on the currentstate o the digital camera industry.At Sigma, we have taken thiscriticism to heart.

During the burst o digital cameramarket growth in the second hal othe 1990s, innovations appeared ata rapid pace in the areas o pixel

count and image processingtechnology, including whitebalance and noise reduction, notto mention auxiliary unctions likeace recognition. Real progress wasbeing made and there was plentyto talk about.

More recently, digital cameras havegained still higher pixel counts,video capability, and other unctionsthat provide practical bene ts andconvenience. These advances were

o ered with the best o intentions people desired them. But i thissame progress is also behind theeeling that cameras have gottenboring, perhaps it is time to rethinkwhat a digital camera should be.

Technology in turmoil

The rst electronic still cameraappeared about 30 years ago, andmass-market digital cameras havebeen around or about 15 years.Looking back on the many stages ophotographic innovation since the19th century, you can see just howyoung the digital camera really is.

Considering the digital camera's

rapid popularization and theaccompanying innovations inper ormance and convenience,you would be excused or gettingthe impression that nothingremains to be accomplished.

Appearances to the contrary,digital cameras and imaging arein a period o turmoil.Measured against the long spano photographic history, digitalphotography is still in its ormativeyears. In Sigma's view, thereis still considerable room ordevelopment.

The idea that digital imagingtechnology is already mature is,in Sigma's opinion, open to debate.

Radical technology or real quality

With the huge popularity o digitalcameras, people are using themin new ways. Digital images areplaying ever more important rolesin our daily lives.

As in the past, photography isan ideal medium or preservingmemories and expressing creativevisions. What is new is the useo photos as communication,

particularly through photo sharingsites and social media. In this newdomain, photos are part oa person's online presence, a wayto share interests and a catalyst orrelationships.

Technology and unctionalitycontinue to evolve to support thesenew applications. Today's digitalcameras are designed to makeit easy to per orm many tasks,thereby encouraging more peopleto enjoy photography withouthesitation. This is a good thing.

But when it comes to the criticalcore o digital photography the image capture system that

determines image quality the overwhelming majority odigital cameras are still on the samewell-worn road. Their undamentaltechnology has not changed sincethe digital camera's babyhood.

It is precisely here in this key areao the capture system and imagegeneration process that Sigma ischarting a new course.

With a single-minded ocus ongenerating true, high qualityimages, Sigma is the only digitalcamera maker dedicated todeveloping direct image sensortechnology and cameras thatincorporate it.

Irreplaceable moments,

immortalized

Moving scenes, candid shots,breathtaking scenery .To preserve these momentstruth ully with all their evocativepower, the image capture systemis o overarching importance.As the bedrock o photographicveracity, the capture system shouldbe the primary target o research,development and innovatione orts. A ter all, photography exists

to refect truth, and cameras existto take photographs.

We are not denying the successo developments aimed at makingcameras easier to use.We simply believe in going to theheart o the matter by ocusing oninnovation that actually improvesthe quality o photographs.

Just as lm ollowed anevolutionary path o incrementalimprovement, so the digitalcamera's image capture systemmust steadily and resolutely evolveto realize its ull potential.There is much to be done and weare set on doing it.

Not another monochrome sensorwith color flters

The image sensor in almost all digitalcameras, with the exception o Sigma's, isa color lter array (CFA) sensor. The imagesensor itsel is monochrome; it detects lightintensity, but not color. The CFA overlaying

the sensor's light-sensitive photodiodes is amosaic o red, green and blue (RGB) ltersin a checkerboard-like grid. Thereore,each photosite, corresponding to a singlepixel, receives just one o the three primarycolors.

In this kind o system, a 15MP CFA sensorallots 7,500,000 pixels to green light and3,750,000 each to red and blue light,respectively. Let as is, this checkerboardpattern would create a strange image,so a process called color interpolation isused to blend in neighboring pixel colorinormation. For example, a green pixelgets color in ormation rom adjacent blueand red pixels, and so on.

CFA sensor relieson eye's sensitivity to green

Why does a CFA sensor assign twice asmany pixels to green as to red or blue?Because the eye is most sensitive to greenlight ( gure 1). Human vision dependsmostly on wavelengths in the green rangeto perceive ne detail and luminance

resolution.

The three charts in gure 2 all have thesame contrast. Notice how the greenbackground lets you detect ne detailmore easily. Most digital cameras takeadvantage o this act o human vision.By capturing relatively moregreen inormation, they canget by with much less blueand red inormation. Thanksto this clever solution, a meremonochrome image sensorcan be used to deliver colorimages o high quality.

So, what's the problem?Though it is true that our eyesare most sensitive to greenluminance (sharpness andcontrast) inormation, we

also see blue and red chrominance (color)inormation. But the unequal treatmenta orded these colors by a CFA sensorcauses a disparity between the luminanceresolution and chrominance resolution othe photographic images it generates.

Unique, innovative direct image sensor

Unlike CFA sensors, the image sensor inSigma digital cameras uses three layerso photodiodes to gather the entire red,green and blue color inormation o light,orming the world's one and only ullcolor capture system. Since introducingits rst-generation digital camera in 2002,Sigma has maintained an unwaveringcommitment to this unique technology.

The image sensor is made o silicon. Whenstruck by light, silicon absorbs shorterwavelengths (blue) near its surace andlonger wavelengths (green, then red) atdeeper levels. The direct image sensortakes advantage o this act, using threelayers o photodiodes to capture all colorso light at each pixel location. Like colorlm in essence, this vertical structurebypasses the need to gather di erentcolors at di erent horizontal locations.

All pixels capture ull RGB color

This means that a direct image sensorhaving 15,000,000 pixel locations is able

to capture ull red, green and blue colorinormation, as is, at each pixel location. Inother words, all 15,000,000 pixel locationscan respond to all three primary RGB colorstransmitted by the lens. There is no need toassign red, green and blue to separate pixellocations, nor is it necessary to abricate oreliminate color inormation during imageprocessing. This ull color capture systemis, in principle, capable o providing equallyhigh luminance resolution and chrominanceresolution.

Since typical photographic subjects docontain an enormous amount o colorinormation, Sigma is convinced thatremoving any discrepancy betweenluminance resolution and chrominance

resolution is an important key tophotographic naturalism.

Unencumbered by a low-pass flter

Another thing: color lter arrays areprone to alse color patterns (moir).This problem is caused by intererence

between repeating patterns o ne lines inthe subject and the mosaic pattern o thecolor lter array itsel . Moir is typicallyprevented by installing a low-pass lter inront o the image sensor.

A low-pass lter works by removing thehigher requencies o light that carry nedetail. This does prevent intererenceand, thereore moir. But it also adverselya ects resolution and image sharpness.Facing this tradeo , some cameras useCFA sensors without a low-pass lter,accepting the inevitable color moirpatterns as the price to pay or a sharperimage.

Sigma's direct image sensor designdoesn't use color lters, so it doesn'tneed a low-pass lter to prevent the alsecolors o moir. The direct image sensorcaptures the sharp image ormed by thelens without losing any in ormation. As aleading lens maker with uncompromisingstandards o photographic image quality,Sigma believes the ideal capture systemis one that receives ull color inormation

at each and every pixel location.

Pure color and light: nothing added,nothing lost

In CFA sensor-equipped digital cameras,only one color is captured per pixellocation. Color interpolation is requiredto generate a ull color image rom thesesingle-color pixels. Over the past decades,color interpolation algorithms havegreatly improved, so that interpolationerrors are rarely a cause or concern in

today's digital cameras.

Nevertheless, light inormation lost in thecapture process can never be perectlyreconstructed. This standard approachcannot ul ll the promise o truly naturalimages. In sharp contrast, Sigma'sdirect image sensor has no use or colorinterpolation and doesn't su er rom itsassociated problems.

Sigma's technology generates naturallyaith ul color images without needing toadd inormation. This is why the ambienceo the scene is so vividly captured inphotos taken with a Sigma digital camera.This refects Sigma's policy o protectingthe integrity o image in ormation keeping the image pure.
