A type of CCD sensor from Fujifilm that is used in its digital cameras. Super CCD uses a honeycomb structure of octagon-shaped light sensors (photodiodes) at 45 degree angles rather than 90 degrees.

To solve this problem, we incorporated a buttable structure in which multiple image sensors are bonded together to form a larger sensor. Figure 3 illustrates this buttable CCD structure.

Because CCD sensors are set in slightly from the surface of the chip, this lets light enter the CCD at less of an angle in order to reach all sensors more equally. Four Thirds cameras require Four ...
