I don’t hate you for your comments. I just think (maybe wishful thinking) but Panasonic has always dominated the video game. I don’t think they can just axe their flagship video focused camera. The question is which sensor are they going to use. The S5II can’t do 4K60 The new Leica S3 sensor is 60 Megapixels - too large for video. They need a new halo model camera even if it is not a high seller. Personally I love my S5II X (I also have the S5 I and am NOT selling it but using it as a second camera angle) I am happy they made the S5II because it brought them so many sales they are full of cash. I think the S9 is a success as well after lifting the recording limits. Since they are releasing an S1R II I wonder what the video upgrades will be (if any)
Hm kind of true even if for some people it is sad... Look I just purchase a GH6 new because of budget and I wanted aince 3 years to have it and when it hit 850 CHF around 880$ after tax I just bought it...what I hate with the S5 line is the slow readout in FF...specially sometimes I pan with long reach lens like the 150-600 and at 600 need to be super carefull to do it not too fast because the readout is so damn slow...with MFT sensor I have no issue...
Happy New Year Lyndon!!! White in Revery stopped shooting weddings??? Darn. Panasonic is in a tough position. They probably don't have enough sales to get Sony to fabricate a custom sensor (the way that Nikon had sony fabricate the semi-stacked sensor for the Z6 III) and I don't know if Sony is going to allow Panasonic to buy the 12MP Sony sensors used in the a7S III / FX3 / FX6 / ZV-E1. And I don't know if Tower Semi is capable of making any full frame sensors that have the capability of the GH7 sensor. I guess we will have to see.
And anytime Panasonic talks about why they choose sensors, they talk about not compromising on both photo AND video IQ. You're right. They don't move enough units.
Panasonic market share is miniscule. GH7 production = 1000 pcs a month. There simply may not be a sustainable market for a 6000 USD Lumix S hybrid at this point.
Had to get this out before Feb. Just in case a random leak gets confirmed!
Lumix will bring some fire
We need a full frame video specific camera from lumix
-4k 60 uncropped
-4k 120 uncropped
-sdi
-xlr
-raw video
-internal nd would be the icing on top
I think they will based on the SL3 or whatever Leica just released. Lumix is like the super affordable Leica's with way more options.

Valid points

@@lyndonlabayan Well, the G9M2 / GH7 sensor is a special sauce. Rumour is that these is made by Nuvoto semi (maybe CMOSIS).
Yes, the GH7 is what the GH6 should have been. Then, Panny boy should never have gone FF in the first place.
All my printed photos, large and small were on the G9 too. Loved m43!
i hate this but i don't know why. i don't even use cameras.
Lol ty for stopping by though
Zero reason to not release a camera that matches GH7 specs in full frame. Sony did it years ago, Nikon, canon did it last year. Get with the times.
