Sorry, you are a mistakenly looked on the Seitz 6×17, it is just a backside scanning way, not a whole size in a sensor, there is merely a linear sensor! Seitz 6×17 is unable to shoot a moving object.

This sucks, there has been a bigger one, for a long time.

Seitz 6×17 —> 160 Mp

And the price comes out the same or even cheaper than a Hasselblad 60Mp, Leaf or Phase One.

This news from canon is interesting but not the biggest.

Yes, I know it’s not a CMOS.

This 8-inch sensor is also able to shoot video under the moonlight, then the spy-satellite will get a best sensor to run the night scout, although NHK has already developed a High-sensitivity HDTV HARP Camera, a few years earlier.
(NHK has also developed the organic films sensor item, jointly with Saitama University, but Fujifilm was a latecomer in the item.)

Good to hear, now that Canon has a 120mpixel chip and now this ultra light sensitive chip, we can expect a 1D Mark V and 1DSx ? How nice it would be if they equipped their new pro segment with an ultra money sensitive pricetage which only required 1/100 of the current DSLR lineup
