Kodak DCS Pro 14n vs 14nx (SLR/c SLR/n Sensor Upgraded)

[siudym]

A small comparison of photos from Kodak 14N and 14NX (after replacing the sensor and electronics with the one from SLR/N (SLR/C).

I checked ISO 160 as the lowest because this is where the Sensor in 14NX starts, while 14N starts at 80. However, ISO 400 is maximum at 14N for the full resolution of 14mpix (ISO 800 only for 6mpix), while 14NX has no limits and can be used up to 1600. That's why I compared cameras at ISO 400 and I can already see a significant advantage of 14NX, i.e. less noise.

PS. I can't upload more photos because I get a "410 page" error.

Interesting and skillful project!

Off topic: where do you get batteries for these, I have a SLR/c with max capacity about 4 pictures.

To clarify, I didn't replace the sensor myself - it was a Kodak program that, for $1,499, allowed 14n owners to change the sensor and electronics to make it similar to the new Kodak SLR/N (SLR/C) models.
