That's extremely disappointing if true, otherwise Sony knocked this one out of the park.


If the electronic shutter truly operates without visible rolling shutter then there's absolutely no need for a fast mechanical shutter since it'll only be used for flash photography.


If it's truly a global shutter, then yes. But if you do any indoor sports then an non-global electronic shutter is a non-starter due to light flickering. It's the same with my E-M1ii, even though the rolling shutter effect is negligible it's unusable for indoor sports.
