The new PMW-F55 and PMW-F5 both have 4K Super 35mm image sensors with a 4096 x 2160 resolution, 11.6M total pixels. Developed for HD, 2K, QFHD and 4K production, the F-series supports multi-codec acquistion through the new XAVC MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 format, the SR codec MPEG4 SStP and the established XDCAM 50Mbps 4:2:2 codec. The cameras have a wide, 14 stops exposure latitude, high sensitivity and low noise. The F55 adds a global shutter to eliminate rolling shutter skew and flash banding, and uses the same colour filter with ultra-wide colour gamut as the F65.

The new F Series was announced late last year. Nick Buchner, Sony’s Senior Product Manager - Content Creation, said that advance demand for both the PMW-F55 and PMW-5 has been so high locally and around the world. Stocks will continue to build over the coming weeks, hopefully fulfilling all orders before the end of March.  http://pro.sony.com.au
