I have set up a dedicated forum for the Sony NEX Hack here A guy named Someone 1.00 is able to hack the NEX series of Sony mirrorless cameras for higher bitrates in video mode and more.

Would I consider intercutting RX100 footage with 1080p from a pro Super 35mm cinema camera? Yes I would. This should give you an idea of what a monumental achievement the technology of the RX100 is.
