(FT4) Olympus E-M1II prototype uses current Sony 20MP MFT sensor.

I got an important information about the Olympus E-M1II. I have been told that Olympus actually plans to release the camera at Photokina 2016. But if the competition will introduce major competitor cameras by early 2016 already than Olympus is ready to launch the E-M1II by early 2016 too. And in that case if will feature the new Sony 20Megapixel MFT sensor and have handheld high-resolution shooting mode.

The competitor cameras could be the GH5, A7000 and Fuji X-PRO2. If those will be announced in 4-5 months than Olympus will step into the battle too.
