According to 43rumors sources the AG-AF100 will use a “tweaked” sensor which works slightly different than the GH1 and GH2. Panasonic could use a “non RGB flow” that is optimized for the video codec. One of our sources also added an awesome detail: Panasonic is working on a loss less compression! He doesn’t know if that compression will be added to the camera but he knows they are working on it!
Bye the way, Panasonic officially said that the AG-AF100 will not use the [shoplink 14826]GH1 sensor[/shoplink]…(Source: DVXuser)
Reminder:
FT= FourThirds
FT1=probably fake rumor
FT2=rumor from unkown sources
FT3=50% chance it is correct
FT4=rumor from known sources
FT5=almost certainly correct!

Dah!
I’ve saying this forever…
This is a video camera. This sensor needs big pixels, not ultra mega big resolution that needs to be subsampled for video.
probably a 1920 x 1080 x 3 sensor without pixel translation
My bet is the same as matteo. 🙂
