A lot of non-existing global shutters. Makes you wonder how trustworthy the rest of the info is.

The timeline also seems to be confusing announcing a camera with releasing a camera.

Oh I didn't notice that, you are right.

I dunno if it's the case here, but it seems like people are starting to use LLMs (Chat GPT et al) for blog posts and SEO churn content that tend to wind up with goofy weird mistake artifacts like that. Like... if you were actually writing that yourself it seems like it'd be a very difficult mistake to make, but an LLM could spit that out for sure.

Someone recently posted a link to some random production company's blog with a bunch of stats about the 12k that included ProRes and other recording options that the camera does not have. The poster thought this production company had some kind of secret access, when I'd put money on it just being LLM generated text that the company didn't bother to proof.

Of course, it could also be an intern or just someone who doesn't know what they're talking about, but whatever the case doesn't seem like a reliable source.

Lawks.

Many errors and omissions. (EG no MK2 URSA, no MFT 2.5K)
