SDI – Interview with Frederic Cao / DxO – 011
After a wonderful interview with Luc Marin of DxO, regarding their new release of DxO Optics Pro version 5, I wanted to learn more. In light of this company’s bent to the scientific, I had a conversation with Frederic Cao, Deputy Chief Scientist, about what goes on underneath the covers.
In fact, Frederic gives a lesson as to what happens, technically, when you click the shutter on a digital camera. This podcast gets somewhat technical, but if you ever wanted to know the science behind digital cameras/digital imaging, you’ll hear it with this episode.
Frederic goes into the reason behind most every sensor has twice as many green pixels as either red or blue, how a sensor interpolates the light falling upon it, why you’ll need to sharpen just about every image, and how (to a degree, without giving away the store) DxO is able to process your images to an exceptional degree.
In my opinion, this is one of those important podcasts where the veil is lifted and the magic explained, but you’ll need to listen carefully. To help you in this regard, please download this white paper from DxO (zip file) labs that explains what Frederic and I are speaking about.
