It’s funny people’s imagination. It turns out to be a 1 inch sensor. What puzzled me is: why is it called a “half frame” sensor? Is it because it’s going to have a vertical aspect ratio? Really twisted use of the term. If it’s vertical, I would just call it a vertical sensor.
I reckon it's supposed to evoke the experience of using half-frame film.
So I think it's more a marketing thing than a technical description.
Besides, it would follow the tradition of how we refer to sensors already: by the film stocks that they are based on (APS, full frame/35mm, medium format, etc).
