THE SONY PXW-FS7 "Verite" SHOULDER-MOUNTED 4K UHD CAM
Sony is certainly targeting the new PXW-FS7 to compete with all the Canon C300. They market it as "...the ideal camcorder for documentaries, unscripted Television, newsmagazines, indie attributes, corporate video and much more."
It does a great job of blurring the lines among a video camera along with a cinema camera, and it really is excellent for both on-the-go and slo-mo - as a result of the continuous slow-motion capabilities at Full HD image top quality. The camera can go as much as 180fps internally in HD and if you add an external raw recorder you can stretch that out to 240fps.
Personally, I'm happiest that you will be capable to record 4K internally on XQD cards using Sony's XAVC codec. Sony's brochure outs the Verite "high-sensitivity 4k Super35 sensor will 11.1 million total pixels and 8.8 million effective pixels to help each 4k shooting and super slow motion" as a key feature, too they should. As producers begin to find out just how much flexibility 4K offers them in post production, I think they will start to insist on 4K acquisition, even for projects delivering in 1080p.

You are going to want to rent it for function films, shorts, reality Television shoots, documentaries and commercials, or for weddings, sports events along with other fast-action settings - and several of you're going to adore the super slow motion capabilities too.

If it lives as much as its hype, and I certainly hope it does, you'll be able to shoot quality footage having a large, single-focus lightweight camera you do not must perform to balance. If that's the case, everyone is going to love operating with this gem.
One downer: You cannot get a raw signal without having the extension unit, which has just recently been released.
