SonyAlphaRumors found a new Sony patent (September 24, 2009 patent NR. 20090237493) which shows a digital 3D camera. The text clearly says that such tecnology will be used in video and still cameras (and use CCD sensors)
Sony published the specs from the new SuperHAD CCD Sensor on their website! It will have no anti-aliasing filter, electronic shutter and a high flash sync with new anti-blooming structure. Better noise handling (+6 dB) and better microlenses design. The CCD sensor oals is to archive high resoltion and colors.
