    4K for $899 with the Panasonic FZ1000 - but beware the quirks!

    Why not a fan of these two cameras? In what way does 4K suddenly make everything before it obsolete, including 2.5K? Are you saying there isn't any difference between a smartphone that shoots 4K and a camera that does the same? And just how is the RX series 'melting down'? 

    i owned both RX100m2 and Galaxy Note 3. I would rather have videos shooting with my Note 3 in most situations because they are definitely a lot sharper in 4k, except for low light. 

     

    i can imagine a new sales record for both LX8 and FZ1000, and especially FZ1000. I viewed some of the samples the bokehs are awesome

    So it seems mobile has overtaken camera for 4K evolution

    I'm still a bit surprised that Sony banned the 4k recording feature on Z1 (which apparently supported by S800), it seems like Sony doesn't want to affect other product lines such as 4k Camcorders or upcoming 4k Consumer Cameras or so.

     

    In contrast, since Samsung and Acer don't have much impact in cameras or camcorders, they are freely to do whatever formats they want like 4k30fps, 1080p60fps.

     

    def looking forward to see how 4k30fps perform on the Note 3 and i won't be surprised there are some ways to crack the Z1 into 4k recording mode via some apps

    It's quite usual to see new tech in consumer products first (if the tech is 'interesting' for consumers). Like wifi and gps made it's way to compact camera's years before it went into dslrs.

     

    4K in phones will bring 4K to the attention of the masses. It's gonna be easier to convince people they have to buy a 4K tv if they already have 4K devices.

     

    Besides, putting 4K in a smartphone won't kill any current product line up either. It's not like people are going to trade their dslr's/movie camera's for a smartphone because it shoots 4K.

     

    Biggest surprise for me is that the Sony Xperia Z1 doesn't shoot 4K. It was rumoured it would and since Sony is making 4K tv's and even launching a 4K streaming service I thought they would push it.

    Anyone read Japanese?

    Hey Andrew, they are in fact Chinese saying: The Next Generation of Sony Xperia - Honami smartphone equips with a 20MPs Exmor R camera (plus a 2.2MP front facing camera) and it's going to support 4K video recording @ 4000x2000 resolution.

     

    There is also another additional leaked photo showing that the rear camera is in fact "20.7MP, 1/2.3 inch sensor with a big G indicating that it's a G lens".

    8mpx @ 20fps on iPhone5?

    there are already indications showing that Apple 5s/6 will perform 120fps video

    my guess it's prolly 1080p 120fps and pretty sure this dude can make 4k 30fps on that

     

    unfortunately i do not own an iphone myself 

    please do share some videos after using this app, thanks
