Four new Four Thirds sensor for smartphones...that might be used on MFT cameras too? Micro 4/3 users, which ones would you possibly want in a micro 4/3 camera ?

1) Samsung 108MP Full-Pixel DPAF;
2) Sony 80MP Full-Pixel 2X2 OCL AF;
3) Omnivision 50MP Full-Pixel 2X2 OCL AF;
4) Sony 44MP Mask-PDAF VDGS.

Cheers

Cheers, and best to all micro 4/3 users.

These micro 4/3 sensors could open up 8K recording for micro 4/3 users. Exciting possibilities .

All would work with the OM Pro lenses. For me, not working as a professional, I would like the 44mp. Less storage space required, faster downloads, less time required for PP.

I saw the video, and it's a stretch imo.

Someone has to buy those sensors...and reengineer everything around them.

OM-D...I doubt that very much.

Panasonic has the resources...but what is their motivation? Not competition (see OM-D). And they have their full frame line to maintain.

I'd be surprised if there was any migration at this point...maybe 5 years ago.

Come to think of it I am happy with my 17 an 20 Mp. sensors in my Olympus cameras.

Now, now; that wasn't the question! You must chose one of the four options!

Just kidding! Of course most of us are happy with our 20mp. But as cameras move forward, so will the megapixels. Most of us amateurs, advanced amateurs, and enthusiasts only care about being able to produce a two page spread image and rarely printing 20X24 to 30X40. 20mp and 25mp will easily cover this situation. But for the professionals that are shooting 4/3rds, this could become interesting. OM Pro lenses can resolve 100mp images. All four of these possibilities would be game changing for the professionals. It will be interesting to see how the future unfolds.

I think any thing higher than that would have some serious compromises in noise and dynamic range.

It could if other tech advances do not progress with the megapixels.
