(FT3) Panasonic/Fuji organic sensor still has issues to be fixed?
Last year Panasonic and Fuji made a surprising (and big) buzz with their joint organic sensor development. But since then we didn’t hear anything new about it. Now Fujirumors got word from their sources that the Panasonic-Fuji developed organic sensor still has some issues like “too much battery drain & problems to find a proper processor” and “too much heat being generated“.
On paper the new Organic sensor has the following advantages over conventional sensors:
1) it has only 1/6 of the thickness of the current sensors
2) Increased Dynamic range of 88dB
3) 1,2 ISO stops more sensitive
4) range of incident angles of 60 degrees, efficiently utilizing light entering at an angle for faithful color reproduction with no color mixing. It also gives greater flexibility in lens designs, facilitating the reduction of overall camera size.
Now let’s see when this sensor is coming for real. Hopefully we don’t have to wait too much time :(

Karsten: “During ‘Illuminale’, a festival of lights at Trier (Germany), we shot the following official movie: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hMzMSY6yvlI. Foremost in the hall of Konstantin Basilika it was extremly dark so I was wondering how the GH4 would manage the situation in UHD mode. Finally it worked great at max ISO 1600 and noise reduction level 0! Our lenses were Olympus 14-35 f2.0, Nokton 17.5 and Nokton 25, most of the time wide open.”

(FT4) rumor correction: E-M5II has “older” E-M5 sensor without PDAF.
Image on top shows the current E-m5
I have to correct an error from one of my trusted sources. He made a mistake and he said he is now almost certain the E-M5II uses the same E-M5 16 megapixel sensor without PDAF and not the E-M1 sensor with PDAF as he previously told me. He said sorry for the misunderstanding :(
The same source said he has been told that at the end the E-M5II is not really made to hold the bigger FT lenses. The E-M1 is more appropriate for that.
On the other hand more sources confirmed that the camera will get the sensor shift function to shoot up to 40 megapixel (in up to 8 shots). So that is now nearly impossible to be wrong :)
Personal note: Really sorry about the mistake. It happens 1-2 times per year that even FT5 rumor get wrong. I hope ot make it good with some great new FT5 rumors :)
