Take crisp digital photos in low light
Not that most people photograph birthday parties with the lights off, but the filter does have a few more low light uses.
By doubling the sensitivity to light of the image sensor in every digital camera, it makes it possible to take a clear picture indoors or at night.
Chris McNiffe, general manager of the photography company's image sensor business told the Sydney Morning Herald that the new filter provides a two to four times improvement in light sensitivity.
The new method provides special cells that are sensitive to all wavelengths of visible light and collect a larger amount of light striking the sensor. By changing camera software algorithms to this unique new pattern, it makes faster shutter speeds possible and reduces blurring when capturing a moving subject.
Kodak expects to provide samples of its new technology to a variety of camera manufacturers in the first quarter of 2008.
