Default Canon mirrorless system announcement due in June 2012?

It looks like the Canon mirrorless system will be announced next
month. Two bodies and five lenses have been finalised for production
so far, with more to come, but it isn't clear how many of these will
be available at the outset.

The sensor will be similar to the one on the Canon PowerShot G1 X,
with a 4/3 aspect ratio and an overall size that is only very slightly
larger than Micro Four Thirds.

Obviously, the sensor size confirms the validity of the Micro Four
Thirds format. However, Olympus and Panasonic must be apprehensive
about what the new Canon system will do to their sales.


Even though their sensor is inferior, at least in the G1X.

In what way is it inferior?

Not as good as the new m4/3rd sensors.


In what way?
