A Canon surprise coming at NAB 2016 (working 8K camera and 8K displays)

In a short interview by the NAB Show, Tim Smith, Senior Advisor, Film and TV Production at Canon, when asked what we can expect Canon to showcase at NAB 2016, said:

We will be showing not only our existing product line, with a few surprises, but we will also be showing working 8K cameras and 8K displays that look into the future of production.

The 8K camera will most likely be the replacement for the EOS C500, the EOS C500 Mark II we wrote about it in the past. When asked what he thinks will be trending at NAB, Tim Smith said:

I think you will be seeing some low-cost high-quality offerings that open up many possibilities for both big-and small-budget productions.

NAB 2016 is just 3 weeks away. Stay tuned…
