The Atomos-developed 8K sensor is called "Sapphire F8," shoots up to 8K at 60 frames per second, uses a global shutter, features phase detection autofocus, and -- perhaps most importantly -- it generates very little heat.
Atomos has announced that it has successfully developed a new 8K video sensor for use in cinema cameras and is currently evaluating the logistics for commercial release.
Sigma's CEO Kazuto Yamaki has revealed that the company's efforts in making a full-frame Foveon sensor are on track to be finished by the end of the year.
Sensors are the main battleground in the camera industry, and Gpixel's latest appears to be well aware of that fact. The company has created a 49-megapixel, HDR, backside-illuminated, stacked sensor capable of up to 8K at 120 frames per second.
