Canon Game-Changer: Ultra-High-Res Sensor with Unmatched Low-Light Capability

In Canon’s latest patent, we can see that Canon is working to improve the low-light sensitivity of their sensors, specifically with dense photodiode architecture. This becomes particularly important when pixel sizes decrease and pixel count increases, as is the case with higher-resolution sensors. It’s a significant challenge for camera makers to maintain proper low-light sensitivity under these conditions. To overcome this, Canon is developing new technology to enhance the performance of its sensors.

Canon Latest Patent Summary

  1. Introducing a light shielding layer in the optical waveguide around each pixel to prevent light leakage and color mixing between pixels, and to preserve phase difference information.
  2. Forming an optical waveguide from near the surface of a photoelectric conversion unit to the upper end of an insulating film to prevent light scattering and absorption by wiring inside the pixel.
  3. Adjusting the refractive index of a non-reflective film on the bottom surface of the optical waveguide of a pixel corresponding to each color to manage variations in light receiving sensitivity between colors.

Canon Patent Neckband Style Camera

Canon recently patented a neckband-style camera to capture video. The concept is truly unique and it will assist content creators in producing videos without exerting too much effort in holding their camera and creating content.

According to the patent document, the camera also has a built-in light. As we all know, Canon is introducing very uniquely designed V series vlogging cameras, so there is a high probability that we will see the neckband-style camera under the V series within the next one or two years

Canon Patent Tilting Viewfinder

In a recent Canon patent, it is very clearly visible that Canon is working on a tilt-table viewfinder for their full-frame mirrorless camera, even camcorders. In general, once a patent surfaces on the web, it roughly takes one or two years to become a real product, specifically at least 2 years when we are talking about a Canon patent. So we have to wait for that. At the same time, it is also to be noted that not every patent becomes a real product, so you have to consider all these factors before jumping to any specific conclusion

This is not the first time someone is testing out or at least tried out a tilting viewfinder a few years back Panasonic Lumix GX 9 (Panasonic G9 Mark II Rumors) camera was one of the first compact mirrorless cameras to feature a tilting find after that Fuji also introduced a tilting viewfinder in their gfx series camera so undo not new in any way new and we have to wait to see in which model Canon introduces

Canon Tilting Viewfinder details

  • [Public number] P2023104712
  • [Release date] 2023-07-28
  • [Title of the invention] Viewfinder unit, imaging device
  • [Application date] 2022-01-18
  • [Applicant]
    [Identification number] 000001007
    [Name] Canon Inc.
  • An object of the present invention is to suppress an increase in the size of an electronic device while securing a large rotation angle of a finder portion.
  • Description of the Related Art
    Conventionally, a viewfinder unit provided in an electronic device such as an imaging device is known. For example, in an electronic device having a viewfinder unit such as an electronic viewfinder, the viewfinder unit is arranged on the upper part of the back side of the electronic device body. The finder section of the finder unit can be slid out from the main body of the electronic device, and the finder section can be tilted and rotated upward from the pulled out state, thereby increasing the degree of freedom in shooting posture. Are known.
  • [0005]However, in Patent Document 1, since the distance between the contact position of the pair of leaf springs with respect to the base plate and the rotating shaft of the holder is long, the contact position moves so as to draw a large arc locus during rotation. . If the finder section rotates excessively, the plate spring section will come off the fixed plate, so there is a restriction on the rotation angle of the finder section. On the other hand, if an attempt is made to design the rotation angle to be large, it is necessary to enlarge the fixing plate, which leads to an increase in the size of the imaging apparatus main body.
  • SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to suppress an increase in the size of an electronic device while securing a large rotation angle of a viewfinder.

Canon Compacts with Vibration Mode [Patent]

Yes, for the first time a Camera maker is working on introducing vibration mode inside the G series compact camera. I don’t know the exact reason behind this, maybe they will adopt android OS soon? So, in which mode you will put your camera, vibrate, silent or Ringing?

Patent Details [Via using Machine translation]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to provide an electronic device capable of transmitting an appropriate vibration feeling without relying on vibration-generating means even when the operation speed of an operation unit is high.

An electronic device as one aspect of the present invention includes an operation unit, a position detection unit capable of detecting an operation position of the operation unit, a vibration unit that generates vibration, and a detection signal output from the position detection unit. and a control means for controlling the driving of the vibration means based on the information about the operation of the operation section that has been received, wherein the control means controls that a predetermined operation position of the operation section is detected by the position detection. If the elapsed time from detection by means is less than a predetermined time, the vibration means is driven so that the current amplitude or frequency of vibration does not decrease, and if the elapsed time is greater than the predetermined time, the vibration means is driven. It is characterized by driving such that the current amplitude or frequency of vibration is reduced.

Canon Upcoming Cameras to Feature Smart Display Unit to Save Power

According to a recent Canon Patent, we spotted, Canon’s upcoming Mirrorless cameras will use a smart display unit to save power consumption and to make the Mirrorless camera battery life a bit better.

Smart Display Units Working Principal as described in the patent

To sufficiently reduce power consumption while a user checks an image to be photographed.SOLUTION: When a user refers to additional information displayed on a display unit, an imaging apparatus considers that the user does not have an intention to perform photographing, and reduces the frame rate and resolution of an image displayed on a digital camera. Even during the pan operation of the digital camera, when the user’s line of sight does not track a subject to be tracked, the imaging apparatus considers that the user does not have an intention to perform photographing, and reduces the frame rate and resolution of an image displayed on the digital camera.
