EOSHD leaked the first look at Sony’s new XEVC codec and it looks very promising and it includes 12-bit 4k and 12-bit 8k 4:4:4 capabilities. Even 1080p is getting a boost up to 240fps 10-bit. This H.265 based codec should double image quality. This codec should appear first on a future Sony FS7 or even the Sony a7SIII which looks to be going 8k more every day.
