    A hobbyist builds a prototype full-frame CCD camera from scratch, with open-source design files and a custom PCB. The video shows the first, still rough prototype.

    HN points to it as an example of advanced DIY hardware, specifically a camera using an affordable Kodak CCD sensor with global shutter.

      That's unfortunate, as hackaday feels like that too me versus it's older writing style. I was hoping to see more advanced projects and I found it in this channel. this video

    2. @jcun4128Jun 2024· in “Show HN: Modular Pi Cam”

      I have seen some people work on a Kodak sensor and also Cine Pi's latest work with the IMX585 sensor is really amazing (4K/8K upscaled). The IMX585 sensor is expensive though compared to the HQ Cam IMX477. Here I'm using the Pi Zero 2 here so can't do 4K I believe (data lanes limit or something, also writing to SD card). Kodak sensor this video Recent CinePi work [LINK] I'm not affiliated with CinePi I'm just amazed what you can do when you know what you're doing ha (eg. color grading)
