The specs are pretty insane. To my knowledge there has been no official announcement of the Dynamax-35 and no one is talking about it in the blogosphere. Even as long as 3 years ago I had heard about a new Panavision digital camera in development. Could this be what's going into Genesis Part Deux?

This is what I'm talking about when I say that the market is now in the driver's seat. All the vendors want to stay in the game. Everyone wants to make the best solution and have their gear on every set around the world.

Hey Panasonic, where are you?
