A "cheap" Sony 4K Camera and other news
The Cheap Sony 4K SonyAlphaRumors has a picture of an upcoming cheap 4K camera from Sony that may sell for less than $5,000. Cheap, of course, is relative. This isn't really news; the idea of a camera like this was previewed back at NAB, as Cinescopophilia points out . I'm quite sure that Sony will come out with a 4K camera that looks like this; the question was never 'if,' only 'when' and 'how much?' But before you get too excited, note that this camera is basically the same body as the HXR-NX5U and HVR-Z5U . These cameras have a FIXED lens, and 1/3" sensors. This is not the 4K replacement for the NEX-FS100. It could still be a nice camera for documentary work, though the image better be worth the extra $$ compared to the price of the HXR-NX5U.
