The only full-frame image sensor I'm aware of that you can buy in small quantities off Mouser and the likes are the CMV20000 CMV50000 (20 and 47.5 mpix) costing $2000-$4500 per sensor. Last I checked APS-C and especially M43 sensors were 1/4 to 1/10 the price.
So imo it boils down to price.
If I had $1M to burn, I'd love to make the same product in full-frame - with Leica-style microprisms so that it would work well with range-finders. Maybe now that film is getting really pricey, maybe there's more of a niche to use old cameras with digital sensors.
- Clamchop 3y agoYou can buy a FF sensor in quantities as small as 1 for less than that per unit, but it will inconveniently have the rest of the camera around it. /s
- dylan604 3y agoYou can buy full camera for the prices GP listed. Something seems off
- whaleofatw2022 3y agoI looked up the part numbers. The 47mp one apparently does 30fps at 7900x6000px, with a global shutter. it's more made for machines than photos.
- sottol 3y ago... when you buy in quantities of 1,000s is my point.
