    Interesting. I haven't seen mention of it anywhere else. Can you share your source?

    @QuickHitRecord

    If you look at rumors sites, they mention it, just without names.

    Camera will come with new LSI, similar to

    Names? Safe houses? Passwords? :-)

    Wow !

    Good. GH5 and GH5S are both over priced.

    15 stops and raw for 2k? No, not in 2018.

    Very interesting... although, the 60fps at only 4:2:0 would be a killer for me. I'll probably still wait to see some footage before buying a GH5s though...

    This is C200 territory...

    4K 24/30fps recording at 422 mode, 200Mbit and 400Mbit

    If this is done without a crop, and at the same price as a GH5S, then this will indeed be impressively unlike Canon!

    Not a deal breaker though, as no mirrorless can do that currently internally.

    They're not, nothing else packs this much value into prices as low as theirs. But of course, I would also welcome lower prices!

    New mount

    Be weird to ditch EF-M, can't it support FF? If so I'm rather surprised indeed they designed it without looking to the future.

    So full frame C200 in photo camera body. Nice!

    Funny thing this...

    "Possible compressed raw recording option ($199)"

    Canon cameras have LONG had the ability to generate compressed raw stills... Canon RAW Lite might just be a variant of this type of compression on an i-frame basis in a nice container file... That's how I would propose to have done it... Could be a nice magic lantern trick to re-route the frame buffer into the Canon Compressed Raw registers, then route that data to dump to memory cards... I'd gladly pay $2500 for a Canon Mirrorless with these kind of capabilities though (if you're reading this Canon)
