Your dad is Bryce Bayer?

  Sometimes things are made by teams of people

    My dad Bryce Bayer (Kodak Rochester) worked closely with Phil Powell (Kodak England) throughout this period. I don't know what Phil Powell specifically contributed to the 'Bayer filter'. I do know that my dad would have liked to have shared credit for all related work on digital photography, but that Kodak Rochester did not want to share credit with Kodak England. I'm also a mathematician, and I see how the details may be beside the point: When one grows a tree together, one wants to view all fruit of the tree as shared.

    That is cool. While I think it's sad that Kodak and it's employees were displaced by digital imaging, I also think part of the role of technology is to bring a better life to all, through its use in medicine or by reducing the cost of "things." I think society owes a great amount to your father's work in this regard. Any thoughts on Fuji's "re-interperetation" of the Bayer-filter in their work on X-Trans?
