Is it the 5D mark 5? No, it’s a framegrab from the RED Epic-m camera that Vincent Laforet took at 96 frames per second, ISO 800. It’s 5K. That’s about 14 Megapixels.

Why? You go ahead and answer that question in the comments.
And if you’re as impressed as I am let us not forget that these cameras push the resolution, but don’t necessarily keep the quality and sharpness there as some others do.

And here’s another reason: HighDynamicRange Video

Come on Canon, we need an update to our cameras already.
