sourcing panchromatic sensors/cameras

[ilucas]

Hello, I am trying to find a source of panchromatic sensors or cameras for a research project. If any one can recommend a supplier with contact information it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks !

I thought panchromatic meant it was sensitive to all colours of light in which case all digital sensors and all modern film is technically panchromatic.

There are multispectral sensors, which capture colour bands and extrapolate the data. There are also panchromatic sensors (black and white), that take in all bands and produce a black and white image. I was reading about this yesterday and found a good web site with tutorial www.cambridgeincoulour.com
