Canon Unveils Revolutionary ‘SPAD’ Camera

The standout feature of the MS-500 lies in its SPAD sensor, which utilizes a cutting-edge technology called photo counting. This technology involves tracking light particles as they enter each pixel, amplifying them by a factor of one million, and then converting them into a digital signal. This meticulous approach allows every single photon to be counted accurately, eliminating the introduction of any noise, which is a significant advantage of SPAD sensors, as highlighted by Canon.
