      It says there in the text, just read it carefully: “…offers the highest response and image quality. The new SX technology allows a reduced noise level…”

        But what does that mean?

        Their current sensor in the NX10 maxes out at 3200ISO. The new Canon and Sony senors at around 14-16MP APS-C are doing 12,800ISO.

          It means you have to wait and see…but from the specifications it looks promising!

    Many APS-C CMOS sensor only have 4 DR steps. The Sony sensor has ISO 200 as native ISO, 200 – 3200 is the non-forced range. I don´t know the last one, but probably they have 1 more step.
    The GX20/K20D sensor has ISO 100 as native ISO, probably ISO 100 – 1600 as non-forced range, but 3200 and 6400 as forced.

    ISO, SCHMISO, this thing is built for speed (if the rumor is true). It’s got video written all over it: 1080/60, 8 channel readout, ability to window/crop the sensor to read out at even higher rates, it’s probably the same type of sensors Sony Canon and Panasonic are building, gotta keep up with the Jones’
