Blackmagic

It is old news but it is still interesting: Blackmagic Design created a small video camera with an 'active' m4/3 lens mount and a Super 16 sensor (see the table). The sensor is smaller than the standard (Micro) Four Thirds sensor. In fact, it is similar to 1" sensor used in Nikon 1 or Sony RX100 cropped to wide ration (~16:9). After all, it a Pocket Cinema Camera, and 4:3 ratio is not useful. Why it is interesting? It looks like a very capable movie camera at democratic price: it can record footage at 220 Mbps, with promise of getting lossless CinemaDNG format later through the firmware update and all this magic is priced at 1k USD. It does not substitute a professional video camera but it should have a better quality than a consumer camcorders. It also would add to m4/3 consortium and add to sales of high-end lenses.
