Re: What about a stacked sensor?

Actually one thought that crossed my mind was they may get rid of the mechanical shutter altogether, if they decide to use the stacked chip from the X-H2S instead of the 40MP one. May be a way to save enough size/weight for Ibis or the new battery.

It could make sense as it would enable uncompromised silent shooting, which would be fitting for the X-Pro line.

Again, just a thought, not sure how viable of a solution this is may be.

It is kind of the solution that Leica has alluded to, but with a global shutter in a future M.

This would be most ideal option for me and the only thing I'm worried of when it comes to the X-T5. I'm used to a leaf shutter so would prefer electronic shutter on Fujifilm rather than that loud clack.
