So after all the hype about a 4/3 sensor it seems that this is simply an upgrade to the FZ200. Since I’d expect a large sensor to be the headline feature in this camera’s list of specs. (and it clearly isn’t) I suppose it must have the same size sensor as its predecessor. Where do these rumours come from?!
Well, as you stated, it is just “rumors”. but still that rumors doesn’t make sense. Why Panasonic will make the FZ300 a 1” sensor and 4K when theres is a camera that can do that which is the FZ1000?. Maybe not the same zoom range and f stop, (cause cant have both: larger sensor with smaller lens from 25-600 at a constant F/2.8). Even less a 4/3 larger sensor. The FZ300 have the same useless-noisy-small sensor as it predecessor, the FZ200, dont spend your money on a cheap useless camera,I did it with the FZ200 when it just released paying a whooping $650 at B&H. and the camera has a lot of issue: AVCHD goes 2 stop darker when recording compared to the MP4. The MP4 now and then it pixel-ate all the footage so you will ruin your video footage. The small sensor its not even a BSI sensor so its still noisy cause is the same sensor, I stop buying camera non-BSI sensor. The only new stuff on the FZ300 its the look and 4K which is more noisier that the Full HD 1080p
