True, but unless you are talking about variable processing the
"opto-chemical sensors" have a fixed response, which you could modify
of course with post processing. The digital sensor's response is
remarkably variable both with built-in software/hardware as well as
post processing. So it is somewhat different. What you may find
interesting is that you can load custom processing curves into some
digital cameras that mimic the response curves of various films like
Velvia or Provia, or you can do it afterword as an action in Photoshop.
