At its NAB 2013 press conference, Sony told us several times that it
never stops thinking about the future. It's fitting, then, that in
addition to announcing pricing
for two 4K sets, the company gave us a taste of what's to come a few
years down the line. A wide variety of lenses, including both current
models and some prototypes, appeared on stage briefly -- behind ropes,
no less -- and while we got no shortage of shots, specs, model names and
any other particulars were strictly off-limits. Current optics included
basic wide-angle and telephoto models, and of the two prototype cameras
on display, one was of particular interest, due in no small part to its
DSLR-like form-factor -- this could perhaps become Sony's version of
the Canon EOS-1D C.
Unfortunately, Sony says that these devices won't make it to market for
quite some time, so photogs will have to make do with this eye candy
for now.
