Just saw this one.

There's an interesting statement in there. He says the G6 uses an "NMOS" sensor vs a "CMOS". Anyone have any further reading on that one? I hadn't heard of that before. I always thought nmos was just a type of transistor vs. pmos that is most commonly used.

In any case after picking up a G6 a few weeks ago, I'll have to concur that it is a great little camera. My only beef is with the damn card slot being under the battery door on the bottom. I can't get the card out without removing the cam from my stabilizer and or rail setup. Not bad, if that's my only ***** :)

Cheers,
Pete

His post pushed me over to order one. I had finally resolved to wait out the GH3 for the GH5, but this camera seems to provide a lot of tide-over features until then.

Two questions: How did you get a hold of one, and does the display information disappear like the GH3?
 
I got mine at Samy's. The screen info does shut off after 30 sec or so, but you can just touch the screen and it comes back. Doesn't look like you can change that setting.
 
If only it had the multi aspect sensor, damn!!! still a great buy though, they seem to be saleing out very quickly
 
..it's got the sensor, only it doesn't have the firmware to make use of it ! It seems like a pretty good trade off, all things considered . I believe you loose about 10% fov. Metabones m43 to canon ef and a tokina 11-16 should remedy that situation, as well on the bmpcc.
 
I went through the whole menu trying to find PAL so I could test 25 and 50p. I didn't find it on my US purchased G6. I've been wrong on other features with this thing, but it's not a simple menu switch like it is with the Canons.
