The S1R sensor and the newest m4/3 sensor (GH6, GH7, G9ii) are supposedly not from Sony. I’m not the only one to suggest this and I’m not saying it based on the sensors. There are quite a few reasons why the relationship might have changed. One, Notice how the brand new Leica SL-3 is the same internal specs as the much older Lumix S5Iix. There was a long gap between the two cameras coming out from each company. And now the 2 new Panasonic versions that will drop next week are going to be different than the Leica counterparts. The S1Rii will have a different sensor and hopefully a faster readout speed and then who knows about the second one? People who are at the LUMIX event however have mentioned that it’s an exciting new camera so maybe the video focused box camera or…??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Andrew Reid Posted February 14 Administrators Share Posted February 14 If the S1R II has a different sensor to the SL-3 I'll eat my hat, but it would be a very interesting development if true. I can't think of many alternative high megapixel sensors from the Sony shelf that would fit the bill other than the 50MP Sony a1 chip.
