The more recent sensors have reduced sensitivity to off-orthogonal ray traces, yes, due to using shallower photosite wells and more sophisticated optics. But reduced by how much is the question. The ideal is still orthogonal, perhaps some sensors can tolerate 5° off axis to the photosite now where in the past problems would be evidenced at 2° or greater.
don't you mean more recent sensors have _increased_ their sensitivity to light coming in at an angle? i would think reduced sensitivity would make the sensors more "picky" about lenses
or perhaps by "sensitivity" you didn't mean sensitivity to light? btw, you *own* the phrase "shallower photosite wells" on search! -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
