CMOS VS. CCD Sensors

The latest issue of Digital Photo Pro has a wonderfully detailed article on the differences between CMOS and CCD sensors - now the two dominant chips to inhabit the gizzards of popularly available DSLR cameras. If you seek the distilled essence of what makes your DSLR do what it does, click that link and read s-l-o-w-l-y.

This information gives you the insight to understand the limitations camera makers face, and to some extent separate the rumors (of new products) from what is factually possible.

If you are really into learning, it would be difficult to deny Digital PhotoPro as a great resource for the technical and artistic "behind the scenes" knowledge to help along the learning curve.
