Panasonic FZ1000 Uses a Sony Sensor

Panasonic has announced the new FZ1000 bridge camera which features a 20.1 megapixel 1-inch MOS sensor.

According to sources the 1-inch MOS sensor used by the new Panasonic FZ1000 is from Sony. It is the same sensor used on the new Sony RX100 M3 compact system camera.

It is also mentioned that unlike Sony, Panasonic managed to solve the heating issue to make it record 4K video.

Panasonic FZ1000 features a super useful 25-400mm 16x optical zoom lens which has an F2.8-4.0 aperture range, 0.09 second auto-focusing speed, a 2,359k OLED Live View Finder (LVF) and a 3-inch 921-K dot LCD display.
