Advertisement Posted September 20, 2012 Posted September 20, 2012 Hi thighslapper, Take a look here Leica M - Microlenses ?. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
jaapv Posted September 20, 2012 Share #22 Posted September 20, 2012 Well, it will certainly be at a higher frequency. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lm_user Posted September 20, 2012 Share #23 Posted September 20, 2012 I would expect that the microlenses do not have to bend the light as far with the shallow sensor construction. Vignetting should be less of an issue and may allow greater tolerance for microlens placement above each photosite. However, I would still expect color shift from oblique light rays passing through the ir filter in front of the filter. Makes me wonder - why not put thd ir filter betwen the microlens and the photosite? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaapv Posted September 20, 2012 Share #24 Posted September 20, 2012 Because that would increase the distance between the sensitive layer and the microlenses. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lm_user Posted September 21, 2012 Share #25 Posted September 21, 2012 Good point - Any idea of the thickness of the ir glass compared to the distance between the microlens and the photosite on a m9? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tappan Posted September 21, 2012 Share #26 Posted September 21, 2012 I am eager to know just one thing. Very simple. Will the images from the M, that we surely will start to see very shortly, be better than images from the M9 at an ISO of 400. Mark Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rosuna Posted September 21, 2012 Share #27 Posted September 21, 2012 Advertisement (gone after registration) The new Leica M is the result of a huge effort and creativity. I am really surprised. Shutter, sensor, processor... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaapv Posted September 21, 2012 Share #28 Posted September 21, 2012 Good point - Any idea of the thickness of the ir glass compared to the distance between the microlens and the photosite on a m9? I do´not know the exact distance between the photosites and the microlenses, but the thickness of the IR filter is 0.5 mm on the M8 and 0.8 mm on the M9, which a huge numbers in the sensor world.

lm_user Posted September 21, 2012 Share #29 Posted September 21, 2012 There is already a color filter (from the bayer pattern) between the microlens and the photosite. I would expect that to be of similar thickness.? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaapv Posted September 22, 2012 Share #30 Posted September 22, 2012 I'm not an expert, but I have been told the Bayer filter is made from polymer film. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
