Will this be the beginning of the end for the the EOS full frame? Are we
going to see 4k studio/movie mirrorless at the november presentation. Is
Canon gonna copy the Leica S2 format? There are questions!

God I hope FF in its current format DIES. Away with 3:2, on to 4:3.

Don't be silly. It ain't gonna happen.

The Leica S2 is 3:2, by the way.

Now that's a good idea!

My partner uses a Panasonic FZ38 superzoom, but the previous camera
was a Panasonic LUMIX DMC-LX2. It was a delight to use, with an ultra
wide angle (and ultra sharp) Leica branded zoom lens plus a 16:9 10 MP
sensor and rear LCD screen.

Alas, the 16:9 sensor was dropped for the subsequent LX3 and LX5 in
favour of a !0 MP 4:3 sensor.

I don't think so. In portrait orientation it would be useful only for
photographing cell towers and flagpoles.

Good luck with your quest to get every photo kiosk in the world to drop
6"x4" prints in favour of 5.33"x4"!

Why, you only want to look at your photo's on a TV screen? What happens
with portrait format?

Gets a bit tedious when you have a mixture of portrait and landscape!
