The new 4K concept camera from Panasonic, first shown at NAB2012While other companies are full steam ahead in the 4K world Panasonic is taking things a bit slower with an 18 month roadmap to their 4k camera offering.
The concept camera they paraded at their Sunday press conference will have on-board in a year and a half a workflow system that will allow it to record AVC Ultra at it’s highest level which they call Class 4:4:4 – a 12-bit signal – all the way down to a 25Mb/s stream.
The camera will have a cinema sized sensor along with this long thought out workflow. AVC Ultra demoes were on their stand.

Panasonic better hurry up if they're aiming at late 2014 a huge chunk of the market will have already migrated to 4K and will not be upgrading for a few years after that. Sony already has the FS700,F-5 and F-55. Red has Scarlet,Red 1,and Epic.
Soon there will be many more to chose from.
Panasonic leapt ahead when they brought out P2 with HD recording on large heavy duty memory cards. Now it's dragging it's heels. In business never rest on your laurels. Remember the Tortoise and the Hare.
