Coloured artefacts appearing on fine detail, caused by the colour filter array sampling different colours at different positions.

Noise that appears in the same places on every frame, caused by small manufacturing differences between photosites.

Dividing an image by a frame of evenly illuminated field to remove vignetting, dust shadows and photosite sensitivity variation.

A sensor that records all three colours at every location by stacking three photodiode layers at different depths in the silicon.

The maximum number of electrons a photosite can hold before it saturates and stops responding to further light.
