(FT5) Panasonic FF camera has no multi-aspect sensor and no organic sensor

Share

The new Panasonic FF system camera will be announced on September 25. And it’s hard to learn about the camera specs as we know Panasonic will only disclose an early prototype with “some specs”.

But thanks to our trusted sources we can debunk some of the myths going around the web:

  1. The new Panasonic FF will NOT have a multi-aspect sensor
  2. The new Panasonic FF will NOT have an organic sensor

So let’s keep it real :)

To sum up this what we know so far (FT5):

  • Panasonic will announce a new Full Frame Mirrorless system camera on September 25
  • Panasonic will only show a prototype with non finalized specs
  • The new camera will go on market by March 2019
  • Panasonic has designed this new sensor
  • The camera will have way more than 30 Megapixels
  • The camera has excellent video quality
  • no multi-aspect sensor, no organic sensor

These are the unconfirmed rumors (FT2….may be right or may be wrong):

  • The camera will take current MFT lenses via adapter
  • Costs around $3,000
  • Has no on sensor stabilization
  • 2 slot card
  • 4K with no crop in FF and 10 bit 4:2:2
  • weather sealed
  • Olympus is not joining the Panasonic FF system

You can join the new Panasonic Full Frame Facebook group if you plan to buy this camera. There you can discuss all features and tests once it’s released!

(FT5) Leaked image of the new Sigma 56mm f/1.4 MFT lens!

Share

This is a nice lens! Sigma will announce the new 56mm f/1.4 lens this week. As usual it will be available as native MFT version too. Well this could make up for the fact that Panasonic and Olympus might not announce a new MFT lens at Photokina :)

Note: Image on top and below show the E-mount version. On the very bottom you see the MFT mount version.

Abel:I’ve made two small hacks in E-M5ii firmware v.4.0.
1. An arbitrary autofocus lens can be used for the in-camera focus stacking.
2. The video recording time limitation increased from 29 minutes to a long duration enough for any practical usage.
