Here is a little-known fact - Olympus claimed that the image sensor used in their first Four Thirds interchangeable lens DSLR camera, E-1 was a full frame sensor! It was mentioned in the official press release, official product descriptions and specifications pages on their website as well as a technical diagram showing the inner workings of the supposedly "full frame" sensor. Technically, it was a full frame sensor as there was nothing to crop from, the Four Thirds system was 100% newly designed digital system, unlike the traditional 35mm format that made a somewhat lazy transition to digital from film. I explained this and more, with plenty of evidence on how Olympus Four Thirds was a full frame, and how the original technology and innovations introduced in the E-1 have shaped the future of imaging, and were adopted by both Canon and Nikon in their respective RF and Z mounts when they went mirrorless full frame - using the same tech that Olympus introduced in the E-1 15 years prior!
