ABSTRACT

At the time of writing, the F23 has been around a relatively short time and details of the F35 were only released very recently. As far as I could discern, hardly any F23s had made it to the UK and no F35s; these cameras are therefore two of only three I review here that I have not actually handled. Nevertheless, it is relatively easy to work out what they do from Sony-released information and their remarkable similarity to the Panavision Genesis. Indeed, it seems almost certain that they are the result of the Joint Venture agreements between Panavision and Sony and I am told that there was a mutual understanding that Sony would not release their versions until at least 2 years after Panavision had released the Genesis.
