Status of 4K video production 4K is not yet done much. Hollywood uses 4K already but not all. (Off line editing) 4K broadcast has been announced in Brazil, Korea, Japan etc. Targeting the World Cup. Test live broadcast of 4K soccer game has been done in Japan in order to confirm the feasibility. 4K test has been done in Europe, EBU etc. Medical use is under testing in Japan, also in USA. Video conference system needs ultra-high-resolution.
4K Camera overview Many available Still camera evolved to 4K movie / Broadcast HD camera evolved to 4K Most demand is cinema use Record the RAW signal and transfer to editing system. Smooth data transfer to the non-linear editing, is very important. Live 4K camera is not a main stream yet. Max size of real-time monitoring is still HD. (View finder)
4K camera RED 4K Camera RED Digital Cinema Released "RED ONE" in 2007, cheap Hollywood has been using it Enhancement of the still camera Both Still and Movie are OK Recently, released "EPIK", "SCARLET" replacing "RED ONE" 4K movie(4096×2160), 5K still Compressed RAW data are recorded Real-time monitor is HD
4K Camera EOS C500 Digital Cinema 4K Camera CANON 4K/2K output Bayer RAW data is recorded. External debayering 4K movie 4096×2160 QFHD 3840×2160 Real-time monitor is HD Connect to an external debayering recorder for actual use.
4K Camera AH4413 4K Camera Astrodesign Real-time 4K debayering Handy like the HD broadcast camera. Just one cable is enough to operate QFHD 3840×2160 Live 4K output HDTV monitoring

Switcher 4K M/E (Mixer/Effect, Keyer) is not available yet 4K live production is not handy Decompose one 4K signal into 4 HDTV lines and process them when real-time is required There's few real-time 4K digital processing system. (eg. "Pablo" by Quantel, color correction)
Non-linear editing 4K mainstream is non-linear editing production. Off line editing on PC and rendering then transfer to recorder or burn DVD Most of the non-linear editing soft can handle 4K Adobe Premiere Pro, Apple Final Cut Pro, Avid Media Composer, Sony Vegas Pro Editing procedure is advanced because of cinema use(eg. Red one+Premier Pro) Many have DVD and Blu-Ray authoring function
Non-linear editing Premier Pro CS6 Abobe High-performance editing workflow Enhanced Mercury Playback Engine using GPU for real-time preview Digital multi effects Adobe After Effect integration

Summary of 4K video production ・Off-line production is established ・Cinema production is matured in Hollywood ・Live production is not yet. Switcher is needed. ・Up-conversion of 2K to 4K is used ・Use of 4K other than video production is not yet done. → Ultra-CG

Super Hi-Vision
Status of 8K video production 8K real-time production is available compared to 4K. The reason is NHK promoting it Public viewing of London Olympic Three live 8K cameras, switched on the site, transfer un-compressed signal to studio in BBC via optical fiber, recorded in BBC and encode in H.265 and transmit to Japan and US. 8K non-linear editing systems in Japan (Sapporo, BUG) Event use in NHK Studio Park, real-time 8K production
