Unfortunately, the story is false! The scientific paper makes no comparison to CMOS sensors, it only says that this new version has about 1000 times the charge output of earlier GRAPHENE sensors,...

This is a rehash of misreporting from some time ago. Current CMOS sensors can already detect over half of the photons that reach them (through the color filters), so there is not even room for  a...

Joe,    first, thanks for the corrections: I did not realize that A-mount was so "old school". (But I do not see how having these little motors on a removable A-mount "snoot" instead of at the same...

Strange to make a fasle claim at the top about losing access to A-moint lenses and then try to justify it with a vague argument about ergonomics many paragraphs later, Anyway, what is the ergonomic...

In fact the Nikon One system is an example I was thinking of: from what I have read, its hybrid AF system has the best on-sensor PDAF so far, and is very good in adequate light, but in low light it...

I have great hopes for moving all AF onto the main sensor, using some combination of contrast detection and phase detection, but I wonder if the idea of using some modified photo-sites for PDAF...

Did you miss the bit about a A<->E lens mount adaptor? Instead, it would be having the deeper A-mount that reduces the lens compatibility, by ruling out use of E-mount lenses, and many other...

Indeed, both Samsung and Sony are probably obliged to release this source code, due to the open source licensing of the GNU/Linux software used in the cameras.

The evidence in that article, and elsewhere, might suggest that Olympus will reduce or completely discontinue its range of fixed lens compact cameras, but not that its Micro Four Thirds cameras and...

How about calling this technology "X3", which is the jargon adopted as an industry-standard by CPIA? "Foveon" is just one approach to X3, and not the one that Canon is pursuing.

It won't be 4/3" format: it is placed above the X2 in the teaser, which is APS-C. Probably an "X2 with interchangeable lenses".

Leica uses sensors from Sony in the X2 and CMOSIS in the new "M", so problem solved.

Leica uses sensors from Sony (probably) in the X2 and CMOSIS (definitely) in the new "M", so problem solved. Only the Monochrom-M, S2, and the older M models use Kodak CCD's anymore.

Leica has placed it above the X2, which it tags as "micro M", so I doubt it will have a sensor smaller than the X2's "APS-C".

My guess/hope is using the same sensor format as the X2, but with...

This video explains my thoughts on this absurd mis-pronunciaton affectation:

My first thought is to discount a "push" poll like this, paid for by Adobe's competitor Corel. For example, did they lay out the price comparisons like $700 up front to "buy" vs $20 per month to...

And let me add:
- EVF flush with body, as the actual PEN F VF was.
- The cool 2+2 control dial + switch system
- odds and ends like time-lapse and always-on IS
Not that any of that would need to...

Lenses are the main size and weight difference between different formats, not the sensors, which are a very small part of the size and weight of a camera. So compare the size and weight of complete...

Fitting the 5-axis IBIS into this body clears the way for a model with built-in eye-level EVF but without the hump of the E-M5 --- so closer to the original PEN ideal than anything we have seen yet...
