Panasonic S5 II (What does Panasonic have up their sleeve?)
eatstoomuchjam and one other reacted to John Matthews for a topic
It would be great for them to release a FF the size of the Sigma FP with a fixed lens or a DSLM and a small 28mm f/2.8 pancake. I'm not sure what this means for M43 if they start focussing on small cameras in L-mount. I suppose they'll make more money in l-mount as they convert people back to Panasonic or "upgrade" M43 users to FF. There's probably not enough money in small, affordable M43 cameras with lenses that already exist everywhere.2 points -

L mount rumors is reporting a new "content creators camera" on May 23 at a Lumix announcement. It's supposed to have some unique features. I'm going to guess it's an electronic variable ND. The camera doesn't have an EVF and is similar in size to the FP. Sounds good, but there aren't any Panasonic lenses that would be good for that form factor. We'll see.2 points -

I read some rumours it would have a fixed lens. Who knows, but if so it might enable them to optimise the lens in a way you can't do with an interchangeable mount. I also read it would be full frame. If so, the lens would be the big question. Maybe they'll release a new lens at the same time that is compact and a better compromise for these mercurial content creators.1 point
