While reading a report on the Kodak Pro/C (Sigma-body with EOS
mount), I read that this one *can* correct the aliasing problem that
occurs with certain lenses, wide-angles in particular (because of
increasing angles of light falling on pixels that were not designed
that way, triggering two pixels were only one should be).
Default it recognizes most available lenses, but one can also create
a dedicated custom 'correction-table', and I think it reads as if you
can then 'attach' this particular table to a certain lens (assumed
that particular lens can be recognized by the camera of course, can't
work with all-manual lenses/adapters, you will have to 'force' a
correction-table there, but still pre-set).
And it stores this correction-table on the memory-card.
Although the report ends with the conclusion that still not all
aliasing problems are gone....maybe the default tables are not
perfect, and aftermarket can do better in creating one?
And, perhaps most important:
In a way, this is also one step closer to my favorite lens-specific
recognition+action: focus correction for IR, depending on IR-
sensitivity and filter used.
Now we only have to convince the camera-designers to make the IR-
block filter removable, instead of requiring an expensive
modification (or preventing any solution, by sandwiching the IR-block
filter onto the sensor, like with the 1Ds (bastards, the 1D can be
modified, the 1Ds can't)).
(oh, and it must also allow some kind of in-camera mounting of the IR-
pass filter, like the BetweenTheFilmRails solution with analog
camera's (or analog-based digicam's, like
DCS-1/3/5/520/560/D2000/D6000)
