Hi,
I don't know, that is the reason I ask. Readout is made on the sensor, Sony is doing that part.
Also the size of the pixels is smaller on the 150 MP sensor and that would probably lead to smaller full well capacity, reducing per pixel DR a bit. On the other hand, it seems smaller pixels have lower readout noise and there is technical progress.
BTW, it is possible to put more than 14 EV DR trough a 14 bit channel, using a tone curve. That was done in Sony's compressed format that passed 13-14 bits of DR trough 11 bits compressed data. But I think they did it off sensor.
It could also be be that the sensor has a lower speed readout mode, that is not specified. But it is a bit confusing.
Best regards
Erik
But doesn’t the leaked plan from Sony from that time say that the old 100Mp Sensor as 14bit readout. We know it actually has 16bit. (Well 15...)
