Not only Canon but also Sharp is going to announce a new 8K MFT camera :)
At least on paper Sharp was actually the first company announcing an 8K mirrorless system camera. Problem is…they haven’t started to produce it yet :)

Three days ago DClife noticed that Sharp added the new 8K MFT camera on their website. Last we heard about that camera was at the CES show where Sharp manager said the camera would be introduced by end 2020. Specs:
8K 30p
4k 60p (200Mbits/s at 10bit)
5.5 inch fully articulating touch display
Full size HDMi out (last year prototype didn’t have it)

Headphone and Audio Jack
Price under $4,000
Nice to see Sharp keeping the MFT system alive and kicking!

In an interview released at Gizmodo Japan the Sigma CEO Yamaki stated a couple of interesting things:
1) It’s not possible to make a small FP camera using the Foveon sensor because the image processing is very heavy and you would need to make the camera larger to fit all tech.
2) for the Sigma FP it’s necessary to develop more compact lenses
