Interesting that:

"The image is separated into 4 quadrants, each recorded onto a separate SDHC"

That is one way to do 4k .

It gets more interesting with JVC.  Competition is good to have.

I wonder with the 4k JVC coming to the market and priced sub $5000 if Canon will lower their C300 from $16000 (supposedly that is the price now being touted).  Also, JVC will eventually come out with their beefed up, interchangeable 4k camera too with a possible $10000 price.  So Canon may have to do so adjustments before the competition forces their hands?
