Had to happen. Apparently made by Sony. Excellent images at ISO6400. Major step forward from CCD at ISO400 max if you are lucky.
Also Hasselblad with the same sensor and the rest of medium format camera makers may be following. With this kind of step up in performance you either follow or you are left out. Who would buy a CCD camera if the CMOS version will provide 14 stops of DR and ground breaking ISO performance. Sony are increasing their sensor development activities and solidifying their position.
