Sony F65 4K camera development status and recording system specifications in 2011
15 years old. Gear and prices may have changed since.
What the thread found
- The F65 was in early development stages at NAB 2011 with the displayed unit being a non-functional mockup
- The SR-R4 recording system uses solid state hard drives to record 4K video and docks with the F65 camera body
- The SR-R3 recorder was developed for use with earlier Sony cinema cameras including the F23 and F35 models
- Production timelines were affected by supply chain disruptions from Japanese component manufacturers rather than Sony's own manufacturing facilities
Depends on
- Camera weight specifications were unavailable from the mockup unit
- Detailed camera body specifications were not disclosed at the time of the discussion
- Production timeline of end of 2011 was subject to external supply chain factors
