Olympus E-M1X Can Shoot 80MP HandHeld High Resolution Images

By on

According to latest rumors, Olympus E-M1X will be the world’s first camera capable of shooting hand held high resolution images. This means the high-end mirrorless camera can shoot 80MP high resolution images with handheld.

Actually we remember this feature from the Panasonic G9 micro four thirds camera. It also has a high-resolution mode, which shifts the sensor by half-pixel increments eight times, and generates an 80MP final image.

Could it be that this new E-M1X model will use a similar technology and its sensor will be 20MP? We’ll have to wait a while to make sure of this, but we can still say that the Olympus E-M1X will be announced in January 2019 around CES event.
