4K

First off, most high-end Alexa feature/TV/spot shoots like to use Cooke primes and Angenieux zooms, not as much C. Zeiss glass, right?

GoPro Hero3 also can do 2.7k rez video -- unfortunately that is a non-standard resolution. We have Full-HD for television, 2K for cinemas, then we jump to 4K in cinemas and soon in television. So, as long as Arri will not have a Full-4K sensor digital camera to line-up against the Reds, Canons, and Sonys of the world, they will basically have these Full-HD + 2K Alexa Blues, right?

Once HD came in, the price of used SD cameras plummeted remember? I predict the same for HD/2K cameras once these new 4K bodies from Canon and Sony gain traction. Alexa is a great camera, although rather overpriced. Time for Arri to bring out the 4K version of it.

Just my 2 euro cents worth, mind you.
