A silicon eye-ball! Now THAT would be interesting. Would solve all sorts of optical problems. It would be a difficult engineering problem however, how do you cut the silicon precisely in a spherical fashion?I can understand why the lens itself is better, it just seems that the lens/sensor interface is much worse when the rear element is so severely close to the sensor. Maybe this sensor is specially designed for this lens and isnt "flat"?
