Further readings or Word around the web

All the filmmakers are concurred with the new technology of canon. Meet Chuck Westfall, who is the training and technical advisor of Canon’s Pro Engineering and Solutions Division said in his interview said that “Film tone curves are obviously the main point of differentiation between one stop and another. With digital, they needed to have the ability to mimic that concept. The two most important things were getting rid of the moray factor and getting the low light sensitivity as much as possible. We designed the sensor to read and use every single pixel on it. There weren’t any lines skipping and there was an absence of moray. Because we operated in a Super 35mm format, we increased the pixels to the native resolution of 3840×2160 and are outputting 1920×1080. This is the first Canon camera to have the 3840 capability.”
