Sony PMW-F3: Super 35, super price?

In early November, Sony has finally revealed the details of the new camcorder promised last NAB in Las Vegas. In coming to market in February 2011, will be called PMW-F3 and will go on sale in due kit distinti: senza ottiche ( PMWF3L alla modica cifra di $16.000) e con tre ottiche - 35 mm, 50mm e 85mm con attacco PL ( PMWF3K , a $23.000).


Spaventati? Io un po' deluso, lo ammetto, speravo in un prezzo più basso, visto che la concorrente Panasonic, la AG-AF101 , pur con caratteristiche inferiori in termini di sensore e di codec adottati, costa meno della metà.
Per capire cosa offre Sony in cambio, ecco il video ufficiale di presentazione e un cortometraggio dimostrativo.

The sensor is Super 35mm (comparable in size to ODA-C Canon EOS 7D), the media have used the SxS XDCAM EX series, as well as the codec used, 35 Mb / s. Compression format as sincerely, as the XDCAM EX is valid, I would have expected something more, maybe a XDCAM HD at 50Mb / s with 4:2:2 color sampling. Those who want more, however, can use the HD-SDI output and record to third parties, such as Ki Mini Pro AJA or Convergent NanoFlash. Compared
sensors used on the SLR, the advantage of this is that Exmore Super35 is designed specifically for 1080p, and has very large pixels, which should give good results in terms of sensitivity to light, were eliminated also side effects such as aliasing and moiré reduced the problem of rolling shutter.

The optics are provided for those with PL mount film, but should also be made available adapters for optical cameras.
Obviously, as a camcorder to all intents and purposes, is complete from the point of view of the audio recording.

Sony also showed a prototype version of NXCAM F3, which should cost less and ask the stessa fascia della AG-AF101. Il codec adottato sarà l'AVCHD, ma il sensore dovrebbe restare lo stesso Super35 EXMOR della sorella maggiore, staremo a vedere.
