Back in 2019 Sony released the full presentation of the IMX492 sensor with 23,1mm diagonal (the MFT sensor has a 22.5 mm diagonal). The sensor has following key specs:
– 47MP multi-aspect sensor (41MP in 4:3 mode and 35MP in 17:9)
– Exmor R tech with electronic shutter
– Has 8k30p recording (in 17:9. In 4:3 it’s 25p)
– 2.315μm Pixel Size for both the Bayer and Monochrome sensor version
Still this sensor has found no use in any OM Digital and Panasonic camera yet. I do believe it would be nice for once to have something different than the usual 20MP resolution. So will we get this 47MP camera in 2024?
