I doubt it's real, it reads like the Christmas wish-list of sensor capabilities.

Because those are always correct, and I haven't seen a press-conference just some shitty drawings in which a 2052x2166 grid of photosites is going to shoot 4K video at 6144x2160, which if my math is correct doesn't add up very well.

Clearly its a prototype, but so was the fs100/fs700 at one point, doesn't mean its not real you dingus. Of course the camera wont have the listed spec, this is essentially what the sensor is capable of, the price of the camera will reflect the capabilities.

But there's nothing tangible yet, there's just some rumours and random claims and even though I want them to be true, they are not verifiable in any way right now.

Potential capability =/= reality, especially when that reality is just some words on a sheet of A4.

That is extremely debatable. Yeah, they make amazing cameras, but ARRI is still king

Yes Arri is still the best. But Sony is right on their heels. The f65 falls right behind the alexa in my book.
