Amazing news!

I saw this coming from you. You always manage to find the latest and greatest official news. I chalk it up to your location.

Great find.

Does the sample image look like it's square format to you, or slightly rectangular?

It only takes MF-F lenses, sorry, you'll have to send all your lenses to Canon to get them converted.

To get the full resolution, you just...oh, wait, this is full resolution!

Ad, I get it, just looked up the specs -- what they mean by "medium format" is that the sensor falls in size right between the tiniest cell phone camera sensor and, well, the third-tiniest cell phone camera sensor -- genius!

And, happy April Fool's Day to all!

What does a box set of stamps have to do with this?

I'd have to say slightly rectangular from my observation, but perhaps that's a crop although the site does not specify. Also, I don't read Mandarin so what do I know?
