JVC annouces M43 video camera

[Bamboopictures]

The JVC LSX2 supposedly has a M43 mount but a 4K super 35mm sensor. How's that going to work?
Will M43 lenses have enough coverage for super35mm sensor?

Comment by a dpreview reviews editor:

There are no figures from JVC yet - the around 21 x 12mm figure we quoted is the one used by Blackmagic for its 4K production camera.

We know of several other sizes described as 'Super 35' many of which are essentially 16:9 crops from APS-C sensors (around 23.5mm width). We were trying to give an idea of scale and stress that Super 35 isn't what still photographers think of as 'full frame/35mm.'

We have to assume it'll be something towards the smaller end of what could be described as 'Super 35' for it to work within the imaging circle of Micro Four Thirds.
