Are there any other sources of information or is this vaporware ? I like the look of it. 4k to 25 mb on board seems perfect to me.

I expect we'll see final info if not a release at NAB.

Is that android I see in the picture ? o_o
Woah that'd be nice if it was released with android on board xD

Yes, that's Android. More accurately, it's a Panasonic Android phone tied to the camera somehow. Even more accurately, it's a drawing of a Panasonic Android phone...

Am I misreading something or are they saying they are going to record a 12 bit / 4:4:4 / 4K image at 25mb/sec ?

Is that even possible or am I just misunderstanding what they are trying to say?

... am I just misunderstanding what they are trying to say?

True North, I think you're misunderstanding. I read it as being able to record a 4:4:4 12-bit signal at it's highest setting, or just 25mbs at it's lowest setting.

No word of that camera at the consumer electronics show, despite Sony showing the F55 at the show. Panasonic did show a AG-AC90ish 4k camera. Fixed lens definitely not as exciting as something with interchangeable lenses. That article was in May 2012. Any more recent press on it?
