Sony PXW-Z280
Claimed to be the world's first 4K 3 chip handheld camcorder with a 1/2" type Exmor R CMOS image sensor.
- Newly developed 4K 3 chip 1/2 type Exmor R CMOS Sensor and the ability to shoot in 4K at up to 60p, all in a 4:2:2 10bit codec
- This camera can record in XAVC Intra/Long, MPEG HD422/MPEG HD and DVCAM to SxS or SD cards
- You can do simultaneous recording (4K MPEG HD422)
- Allows users to easily turn around HD material for a news application for example while still recording a higher quality master
- The camera also has a 12G-SDI output which is impressive for a camcorder
- In addition of 4K up to 60p capture in 4:2:2 10-bit is impressive as even Sony's own FS5 only records 4:2:2 10-bit in HD
- Also includes Sony's electronic variable ND system which can be found in the FS5, FS7 Mark II and a few other camcorders
