Any C Hing can tell the difference between CCD and CMOS? Which is better? Is expensive DC use CMOS and cheaper DC use CCD?

[pongyee]

what's the point of comparing the different in performance and price of CCD and CMOS?

is it not the overall performance and price of the final products that you concern?

[wateryim]

Yes, baby, of course "overall performance and price of the final products" is my concern, I just wonder CCD and CMOS will affect the overall performance and price of the final products......

[pongyee]

keep wondering then, good luck.

除左比較食電, 暫時CCD都比CMOS優勝, 大底機背都用CCD

Thanks a lot!!

Much has been written about the relative advantages of CMOS versus CCD imagers. It seems that the debate has continued on for as long as most people can remember with no definitive conclusion in sight. It is not surprising that a definitive answer is elusive, since the topic is not static. Technologies and markets evolve, affecting not only what is technically feasible, but also what is commercially viable. Imager applications are varied, with different and changing requirements. Some applications are best served by CMOS imagers, some by CCDs. In this article, we will attempt to add some clarity to the discussion by examining the different situations, explaining some of the lesser known technical trade‑offs, and introducing cost considerations into the picture...

CMOS Is Winning the Camera Sensor Battle, and Here's Why

=========================================

but, after reading all these, one still can't figure out how "CCD and CMOS will affect the overall performance and price of the final products", because the performance and price of a final product is determined by many factors, especially when it is an expensive model.

Thanks pongyee...at least I learn something more......
