It’s been a little while since pcb board we’ve seen fit to report on a rumor. Most of what has passed through the rumor mill of late has either not been significant enough, or only worth linking out to. This news, however, caught our eye: it seems Sony is working on a ‘non-Bayer’ sensor that might appear in cameras pcb board as early as late 2015.

The news, as with most rumors pcb board regarding the goings on at Sony, comes from sonyalpharumors, and is rated as “almost certainly correct.” According to “very trusted sources,” the previously-rumored 54-megapixel Sony sensor with Phase Detect AF on-sensor will, supposedly, eschew the pcb board typical RGB Bayer array in favor of some other configuration.

Neither we nor SAR has any pcb board idea what this alternate configuration will look like — and there are already alternatives out there, such as Sigma’s Foveon sensors — but the simple fact that one of the leading sensor manufacturers in the world is moving away from the Bayer array is significant in its own right pcb board.

According to SAR, Sony will continue producing its pcb board standard 24MP and 36MP FF sensors through 2014 and most of 2015, with the new sensors making their appearance starting either pcb board in late 2015 or early 2016 depending on pcb board what the competition looks like.
