IMO Foveon has a problem: marketing number. Only those who know that megapixels isn't the only thing will consider such a sensor. Most poeple will notice it is not 10Mpix and will reject it pretty quickly.
Sigma tries to be different than others using Foveon and it is a good thing from Sigma I beleive but the "big ones" (and wannabe) won't get into this (I hope they'd do this but I don't think so). 2007/3/9, Mark Erickson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > Rumors are surfacing that Foveon sensors may show up in non Sigma DSLRs in > the next six months or so.
