Which means, they have FF sensor capable of recording video.. hm, which could be same sensor as for A950? 🙂
That was my thought 🙂
@Daemonius, the sensor of this smaller Sony CineAlta camcorder/film camera is a Super 35mm and highly probably a RGB stripe CCD sensor (like the Sony F35 CineAlta film camera) without any Bayer pattern filter.
For more information look at these links:

Super 35mm:

The “normal” 35mm Full-frame sensor size is about 36x24mm, which Full-frame cameras like Sony Alpha 900, Nikon D3(s, x), Canon EOS 1Ds Mark III, Canon EOS 5D Mark II D-SLR and the Leica M9 rangefinder eg. use.
Okay in one thing i am wrong, this new Sony CineAlta Camcorder uses a EXMOR-CMOS sensor, so dude this stuff could be bring up in a bigger Full frame 35mm Sony Alpha D-SLR camera! Very nice fact! I hope Sony can rule all the other D-SLR cameras with Full HD video recording!
Really interesting choice from Sony to bring a CineAlta camcorder which can beat the also cheap competition of RED film cameras/camcorders! So Sony won’t let the market be alone with RED.
So it’s not a answer to the Panasonic mFT camcorder, but a great fully answer to the big competetion of the newcomer RED!
would be pretty awesome if it is a DSLR and not an actual camcorder.
we can only dream though
Fast forward to the 36 min mark. Some interesting high end stuff mentioned at 34 min.
Transcribe! 😛
Imagine if this can capture RAW shots. It would be kinda a 950. 🙂
Well, it looks like 2 camera’s, the big gun and a small one on the right side. And by size, it are two different cam’s.
Wtf is up with this site posting so much shit!?
Its s35 mm cinema size not full frame.
And the vg10 is a consumer crap model. If it has a succesor it wont compete with th af100 it will be a completely different model like a z1u whic is pro.
Author is an idiot
Hello, can you troll somewhere else? thx^^
Full frame probably means full frame 35mm film, i.e. APS-C sized. And this is probably the EX35 which is an APS-C behind a PL mount for £10-12k. And it won’t be doing RAW no camera in this range would do this and sony are very unlikely to kill their top line. Give me decent 1080p off a decent sensor with decent compression and decent price and there will be a lot of very happy professionals around..
Sony is gonna eat pana’s ag-af100 alive
it better at af100 alive. it costs 3x more

12bit 30fps video stream from full frame sensor?! Oh hell… if they’ll make it, and than put to the DSLR… 30 FPS continuous shooting in RAW mode without time limitation… O_O wow! Even if it’d be only in full HD resolution, it’s still stunning feature.
I wonder though if this camera would have E-bayonet with some adapter in setup to use PL mount lenses… very doubtfully, but who knows?

It would be hilarious if the smaller object in front turned out to be a fullframe A77. 😀
yeeah, there is certainly a camera in front. That would be a very big shift in time, if it is the a77. dont think so..
