Japanese broadcast camera manufacturer Ikegami shows off their new 4/3rds large sensor ENG style camera. It has the same size sensor as the Panasonic GH2 and AF101 but in a much larger ENG camera body. The lens mount is the cine standard PL instead on the M4/3 type.

No final word on pricing and availability but expect this camera to be priced much higher than the AF101 or Sony PMW-F3.
