(FT2) Unconfirmed rumor: Sort of Polarizing filter on the Panasonic G9 sensor?

Now this is really sort of unusual rumor. It’s not from my usual trusted sources but it sounds so strange that I am posting this as a low ranked rumor anyway.

The source said that indeed the G9 has no AA filter but it will have a sort of Polarizing filter directly on the sensor.

That new source also said this:

– G9 has same GH5 AF sensors
– Autofocus is faster than the GH5
– Photo Quality is higher than on the GH5
– It has built-in flash
– Hi-rez Mode with 20/60/80 MP
– Body size in between the G81 and GH5
– Body price around $160o-$1700

Consider that this is NOT a rumor from my well-known sources. It could be right or it could be wrong. But still I would like to know from why a polarizing on sensor could be interesting…

Panasonic press meetings between November 6 and November 8

Various sources told me that they got press meetings with Panasonic between November 6 and November 8. At this point I am not 100% certain if the G9 will be announced on November 6 at around 11am London time or if it will be announced on November 8.
It might be that Panasonic will show the camera to some people on November 6 but asking them to sign NDA til November 8.

Those are the G9 specs we got from our sourcesso far:

– It will have a 20.3 MP sensor without an AA filter.
– 80 MP mode combined from 8 images. Images are stitched together in camera (no need to run it through an external software). works with camera on tripod only (non handheld mode)
– 6K Photo mode,
– 60FPS AFS.
– 2 slots for SD card
– Magnesium body, freeze proof up to -10 Celsius degrees
– 3,680k-dot OLED LVF
– Rear joystick for focus points
– Top plate LCD
– Large buffer with no slow down
– available after Christmas
