Canon-EOS-RT

Pellicle Mirror – Back in 1989 Canon introduced first consumer SLR camera Canon EOS RT with Pellicle Mirror, actually the Pellicle mirrors based camera offers some of the advantages over the traditional SLR / DSLR camera, since When you DSLR (Canon, Nikon, Pentax) mirror flips up when you press the shutter button, it allow the light to pass through it to the sensor / flim of the camera, but the biggest problem of the moving mirror that it creates vibration, produces noise, creates a viewfinder blackout for a fraction of second and also limits the Camera burst speed capability.
A Pellicle mirror is actually a translucent film that will remain in fixed place at middle and always reflects some of the light up to the viewfinder and AF sensor, rest of the reaming light goes to the film / sensor.

Advantage – The Major advantage is the fixed mirror tech the camera will get ultimate burst speed, the other major advantage is that doesn’t blackout the viewfinder while shooting at high speed burst mode, due to fixed mirror tech your camera remains vibration and noise free.

Sony-A33-img

Sony SLT System – On Aug 24, 2010 Sony A33 was announced by Sony based on Pellicle mirror technology of Canon, this time Sony was using transparent films instead of mirrors.

Canon-150D-coming-imgCanon next SLT camera ? I do believe Canon will select its entry level series camera to introduce the new technology, earlier they have introduced the first Hybrid AF sensor in  Canon T5i / Canon 100D,  similarly they will select Canon 150D / SL2 or possibly Canon 800D for the introduction SLT technology (Single-Lens Translucent ) technology and EVF, both the tech will make it more compact and handy.

Court Rules Against Canon in Patent Infringement Fight

Canon-lenses-and-camera-img

Canon lost the battle of Patent infringement against Intellectual Ventures, the Intellectual Ventures claimed that these two sensors [“Method of making a semiconductor image sensor” and US6,023,081 “Semiconductor image sensor.“] used by Canon are developed by them.

By Memorandum Opinion entered by The Honorable Sue L. Robinson in Intellectual Ventures I, LLC, et al. v. Canon Inc., et al., Civil Action No. 11-792-SLR (D.Del., May 18, 2015), the Court granted plaintiff’s alternative motion for a new trial regarding infringement of U.S. Patent Numbers 6,121,960 (“the ‘960 patent”) and 5,754,348 (“the ‘348 patent”) after concluding that defense counsel in his closing argument improperly played the role of expert witness by inferring from factual testimony that the accused devices did not meet the claim limitations arguments. The court found such argument to be contrary to a pre-trial agreement that defendant would not present any evidence of non-infringement, including evidence of a lack of a subjective intent to infringe, particularly given that the Court previously barred certain testimony from plaintiff’s witnesses on the topic during the trial.
