I haven't used the *ist DL2 for a while, so I took it for a walk today with the SMC Takumar 28mm/3.5.

Hello, friends! I own few six-megapixels Pentaxes (istD, 100D Super and Sams GX-1L).
Please, help me! I didn't find answer to my question yet.

I know that there was two 6 Mp sensors from Sony: ICX413AQ and ICX453AQ.
Which sensor is in each six-megapixel Pentax/Samsung? I know, that istD and istDL uses ICX413AQ. Also I know that Nikon D40/D50 uses ICX453AQ

Which sensor is used in K100D/110D/100D Super?
What is the difference between ICX413AQ and ICX453AQ (in terms of noise, dynamic range, colour depth etc.) Who knows?

Question Nr 2. istD (2003) and istDL2 (2005) uses the same sensor - ICX413AQ. Is there some difference at noise, dynamic range, colours etc between these two cameras?
In-camrea processing of RAW-data from sensor in 2003 and in 2005 may be other.

According to this DSLR or color CCD ??? - CCD/CMOS Astro Camera Imaging & Processing - Cloudy Nights the sensor is ICX453AQ. The difference, well i guess it´s newer so it would be a step up generally.
With different generation cameras with same sensor i´d say they just use the sensor better.
