It’s will be good for the next LX4/LX5 :
- 1/1.3″ sensor : just the good size for 12,5 MPixel with the same pixel-size of the LX3 10.1 MPixel 1/1.63″ sensor
- Backlight sensor : + 8DB ? If that’s “only” + 6DB : nominal sensitivity will jump from ISO 80 to 320 and excellent/good quality from ISO 200 to ISO 800 (always comparing to LX3), and max sensitivity from ISO 1600 to 6400…
- We are on Q03, then the LX4/LX5 for Q04 ?

Back illumination won’t do nearly the same for large sensors as for small ones because the electronics are already very small compared to the photo diodes
So not really a big deal that Panasonic can’t apply the process for large sensors.
