There are a few camera's which can record at high resolutions and
high-speeds, but recording at 4k at high-speed, no camera can do this. From
what I saw on the MCT-website, a 16000fps camera, does not capture 16000fps
at 1024x1025 pixels: maximum speed is 500fps then.
Besides, it is not Red's goal to be able to record at very high-speeds.
What they achieve now, is up to the latest of what is possible for a
reasonable price.

Jim Jannard is still very positive about it. But so was Jeff Kreines with
his Kinetta, which is still not on the market (a nice modular design as
well).

Farewell Sven. You are a great inspiration. May you guide our lights
