Panasonic-Fuji organic sensors has double the dynamic range of the Nikon D800E.

Share

The new Panasonic-Fuji organic sensor has a theoretical dynamic range of 88dB (29.2 EV!). The current best DSLR the Nikon D800E has a measured dynamic range of 46dB (15.3 EV) (Source: Adorama via PetaPixel). If the next Panasonic and Fuji cameras can really achieve such an impressive Dynamic than these will be a huge step forward! It will not only close the gap to FF sensors but on paper even “beat” them. Of course, it has to be seen that how long it will take until the new sensor can find his way in real mass production cameras. And of course the competition is certainly working on similar sensors too!

UPDATE: There seems to be a big confusion on the conversion between “dB” and “stops (EV)” A 43rumors reader shared that table:
46 dB = 4.6 B –> 10^4.6 = 2^15.3 –> 15.3 EV (Nikon D800E)
88 dB = 8.8 B –> 10^8.8 = 2^29.2 –> 29.2 EV (New Organic sensor from Panasonic-Fuji)
10 dB = 3.32 EV = log 10 / log 2

P.S.: Short focus on real existing cameras: ….Adorama (Click here) published the full list of 115 newly discounted Olympus cameras and lenses. The same list but separated can be seen at Amazon (here at the cameras and here are the lenses).
