CanonWatch spotted that Canon Netherland teaser showing a new soon to be announced superzoom and large sensor compact camera. I guess it will feature the same Sony 20,1 MP 1 inch sensor as the G7x. And it will compete against the RX10 and FZ1000 cameras.

Is there any definitive information about the sensor?
The studio tests I have seen so far, do suggest that G7x has different sensor: at higher ISO IQ deteriorates faster compared to the RX100.
The LX100, RX100, FZ1000 and RX10 easily beat G7X on IQ. At least in the tests I have seen (Imaging Resource and another one).
The G7x deteriorates because Canon tried to squeeze out more focal length by cropping the sensor.
Impossible!
Ironic or any reason to believe that?
I guess 2/3″ or 1″ sensor with a huge and heavy lens with quite long zoom, but nothing record breaking in terms of zoom ratio. Maby 10x – 15x.
It must be a 1″ sensor to compete against Pana FZ1000 & Sony RX10 !
Might be very interesting if Canon don’t drop the internal EVF,hotshoe and delivers a fast zoom with a range such as 24-250mm or 24-300mm with the FZ1000 price level !…Am I asking too much from Canon ?
