Some professional cameras take photos with hexagonal pixels, for example

Really? I thought the Bayer filter was near-universal, and Wikipedia does not list what you just mentioned.
Anyway, older LCDs in portable color TVs, cameras and camcorders did use that pattern but that’s on the display side.

I’d apparently read about Fujifilm doing this with some of their older CCD based sensors and they shifted away from that ages ago!

Apparently they did have a raw format called RAF and the processing involved “demosaicing” funnily enough given the thread we are in
