While Nikon and Canon try to make a full frame mirrorless camera to stop the masses jumping ship to Sony, they forgot one thing:
PANASONIC.
Its strongly rumoured that Panasonic will announce a full frame mirrorless model at the end of this month, and that news good be huge!!
All Panasonic really have to do is use the tech already in their GH5 and GH5S, but with a full frame sensor, and its going to be a 2 horse race (Sony & Panasonic).
Although Panasonic have been exclusively micro 4/3rds for the last 10 years, they did release the EVA-1 last year, which uses... guess what? A canon EF mount.
I think Panasonic will make a full frame mirrorless camera that natively accepts all canon EF glass, with all the amazing codecs from the GH5/S, all the assistance tools from the GH5/S (waveform, focus peaking, zebras, vectorscope), the IBIS from the GH5, the unlimited recording time and dual UHS-ii SD card slots from the GH5/S, the flip out screen from the GH5/S, the low light performance of the GH5S, and introduce phase detect autofocus (the one thing their camera's have been lacking).
While the others cripple their cameras in some way to protect their own models, Panasonic have a history of giving their consumers what they want.
I think Panasonic could be the surprise winner in this brewing war. |
