At 10.00 am Las Vegas time Panasonic will announce a so called “game changing” new 4K camcorder. And we know just learned that indeed this is a Four Thirds sensor camcorder! It’s actually a complete new camera that will replace the current AGAF100 series.

It will be very interesting to see what kind of new sensor Panasonic has developed. Some of the new camcorders features may will find it’s way in a future GH5 camera!

UPDATE: Veydra confirmed there is a new 4K MFT cam. They reported to Newsshooter:

For NAB 2015 Ryan Avery from Veydra has some exciting new announcements. The first is the dedicated 2x anamorphic prime cine lens for M4/3 mount. Made specifically for the GH4 and another camera that Panasonic will be unveiling tomorrow.

P.S.: Thanks David from http://ironfilm.co.nz/ for spotting this!

.

A long time trusted source sent me this very short line:

Tomorrow at NAB show possible Panasonic will have firmware update for the GH4 with LOG and possible Raw. And new 4K camera as well.

Panasonic itself says about the new camera:

Do you remember [shoplink 52587 ebay]AG-DVX100[/shoplink]? As a DV camera capable of film-like shooting with Cine-like gamma and a 24p mode, a groundbreaking camera in the industry. I am proud to say that it was a big hit for us, and it has been widely used and loved by customers around the world for over ten years.

Now, in a world where 4K shooting is fast becoming the norm, we’ve decided to go for a new breakthrough, and try to create another disruption in the industry and hit like the DVX100. I hope you’ll come to the Panasonic booth at NAB and see what we have in mind.

UPDATE: That new 4K camera is almost certainly a new 4K MFT mount camera!!!

P.S.: That’s when we will have the announcements today (Las Vegas time).

Blackmagic should announce new cameras today and among them also MFT mount product(s).

I only got one rumor but I believe those specs are fake! Anyway would be nice if there would be a new Pocket camera with such (or similar) specs:

Thanks to the source who sent me this!!!

This really a no surprise to anyone. But a source close to Sigma told me they killed any Four Thirds lens development project. FT lens development is officially dead.

These are the first images of the long time rumored TG-4 compact camera. The camera will be announced within the next few days. And no, there is no new PEN or other MFT camera that will be announced along it :(

A couple of weeks ago Canon said they are working to make a new GH4 competitor and hinted that it would come soon. Now I know it’s fools day but that image is a real leak and shows the “rumored GH4” competitor. It’s a fixed lens camera with 1 inch sensor. Don’t think we should call that GH4 competitor :)

Time to kill all your dreams :=)
I am pretty certain there will be no GH5 or other 4K capable Micro Four Thirds photocamera is coming at NABshow in Las Vegas (start April 12). But we can hope to finally get the long time rumored Big GH4 firmware update.

And of course absolutely nothing is coming from Olympus!
