First glimpse of Canon's true flagship mirrorless slated for 2022:

54MP 9000 X 6000 resolution with 4um pixel size

Quad Pixel AF

1/450s sensor readout (2.2ms rolling shutter)

Dual-15bit Sigma-Delta ADC

Fully electronic shutter with no mechnical component (same as Z9).

May I know what frame rates, and IF open gate is possible?

want open gate 60fps for anamorphic

Missing @androidlad in this discussion...please chime in.

Any chance for open gate 120fps?

https://www.sonyalpharumors.com/sony-a7sii-successor-has-new-12mp-sensor/

Perhaps Irix cine lenses at less than $1300 each, SLR Magic APO EF lenses at $1200 each, and upcoming Meike full-frame cine lenses has something to do with it?

If only Sigma would follow suit 🤞

It requires far more aggressive line-skipping to readout the full height of the sensor which is 8736 pixels.

Currently GFX100 uses 2/3 subsampling vertically to derive a 4352 pixel Bayer from a 6528 pixel height, and that already saturated the maximum readout time of 32ms required to achieve 30fps video frame rate.

how would the 25mp and 50mp BSI sensors fare?

A great promotion would be IF Sony Xperia Pro is included.

Portkeys LEYE 2.4” HDMI looks interesting:

GFX 100 to get ProRes Raw

not being good at math,

hope @androidlad chimes in with frame rates and crop factors

Andrew... get your hands on an Aivascope 1.75X MK2 (or wait for the MK3), it’s a freaking BEAST. I wouldn’t say it kicks my tunes Kowa 16-H straight in the crotch, but it sure as heck kicks it in the shins a bit. I got mine with a single focus on front for under US$800, after seeing the image it feels like highway robbery. 
 

It’s as wide as my Kowa. Anyone who’s been around the anamorphic block for a decade or so will grasp the weight of that statement.

The Aivascope 1.75x would cover GFX 100 with what focal length lens, please?

you didn’t specify which camera you use, but here’s a cage for Sony:

Just dropping this here with all the R5 buzz:

RED Komodo sensor was co-designed with and manufactured by Canon, it's literally an APS-Cish crop of the full frame sensor on R5.

Except Red Komodo supposedly has global shutter mode.

Meanwhile, Nanlite is heavily discounting their Forza 500 kit.

Unless sizes matters more to you than all else, I wouldn't strongly recommend either. Wait for the next Zoom F series release, it is coming very very soon...

if Tentacle can incorporate 32-Bit float in their forthcoming [tiny] Track E, I would hope Zoom has plans to update their F1 and H6 as well.

I’d be interested if the cinema variant of the GFX100 is still on track.  I forget if the sensor is Quad Bayer in addition to being x-trans technology?

X-T?? is expected to offer a diverse selection of movie recording resolutions and frame rates, some of which will be made available to X-T3 via a firmware update.
