Re: Sony to expand 35mm large format NXCAM lineup
 

Why do you say that? All the other 2/3 or 1/3 cmos sensors exhibit the same amount of rolling shutter, why would scarlet be any different?

Re: Sony to expand 35mm large format NXCAM lineup
 

Or it may have the same rolling shutter as RED in 2k mode. Which means about half, but also only 1/4 of the pixels is used.

Or it may have a "slightly" better rolling shutter when shooting high fps but still have a lot of wiggle when doing regular speed.

It's odd that no one who's seen the camera has mentioned this. That would have been one of the first things I'd have checked for, as I suspect most people on this forum would have as well.

Since this is called an NXCAM, and the existing NXCAM, the NX5U, does have a 10-bit HD/SDI port, it would seem logical to have such a port. The competition, the AF100, certainly does (8-bit, anyway).

If that info doesn't surface before NAB I'll be sure to find out. I need it as well.

Re: Sony to expand 35mm large format NXCAM lineup
 

I strongly suspect the people who saw it are under an embargo regarding a lot of details, the self "censored" photographs being an obvious example. It seems likely that external outputs are something else this applies to.
Seems sensible reasoning.

FS-100 NXCAM S35mm Sony Camera Has A Name:

On the 23rd of March expect that the new Sony NXCAM Super 35mm Cine Compact camera with removable lens will officially be called the FS-100? You can also bet money that regional editions of the Sony NXCAM will be sold as the FS-100E, FS-100P, FS-100U etc but will come to be universally called the Sony FS-100 NXCAM camera. NB theses are tips we received and sources have a great track record so far.
Prices bandied about for the Sony FS-100 NXCAM S35mm camera have been $7,000 and $6,000 but we have had a few whispers that it could well be lower than $6k.
Keep watching for the March 23 NXCAM showing when all is revealed.

Re: Sony to expand 35mm large format NXCAM lineup
 

"FS-100"
this is the same name of a cannon consumer camcorder. Not that anybody are going to confuse the two, but shouldn't this be a consideration?

Re: Sony to expand 35mm large format NXCAM lineup
 

I think that is H FS100...

Re: Sony to expand 35mm large format NXCAM lineup
 

While I appreciate Cinemascopophilia's guarantees on the name of this camera, I think I'll wait until the official announcement from the Sony Corporation before I call this camera the FS-100.

Re: Sony to expand 35mm large format NXCAM lineup
 

FS-100 is also the "Firestore" disk... I had one for my HPX171...
