Teh Frauenhofer institute published the full details of the future new 16Mp 3D stacked and Global shutterOlympus sensor (PDF download here).
It’s highly likely this could become the future new E-M1markII sensor!
In short these are the new sensor advantage:
No artifacts (no parasitic light)
Global Shutter (no rolling shutter artifacts)
High Image quality
Just let’s hope this tech is ready for the E-M1markII launch at Photokina 2016 :)
