This will be multi-kilobucks but best wishes. There was a series of GPL cameras some years back (I'm spacing on the name) but they used smaller sensors and were more video oriented. Anyone remember?

Edit: I remember now. It was elphel.com and it appears to still be around.

Yeah, it seems the sensor costs as much as a decent used camera.

And it's not a great sensor to put it mildly.

I haven't had a CCD camera since my Pentax K10D. That's now old enough to drink.
