(FT3) New Olympus E-M1II sensor is twice as fast as the PEN-F sensor!
[/shoplink]
I hope the surprising rumor I received recently is true. It says the new Olympus E-M1II that is expected to be announced on September 19 could have a new Olympus designed and Sony produced sensor!
One source added the following info:
“The sensor is trimmed for maximal AF speed and very fast parallel signal output reading. The sensor reading is twice as fast than ont he current [shoplink 59394 ebay]Olympus PEN-F[/shoplink].”
This would be a hell of a news! Finally a real new(!) MFT sensor!
All other current confirmed E-M1II specs:
4K video (first Olympus camera with 4K)
Dual SD card slot
Handheld High Resolution mode
Much improved autofocus performance
new high-resolution EVF
Announcement at Photokina in September
It has no global shutter. But Olympus worked hard to reduce rolling shutter to a negligible level
