Panasonic officially took the wraps off the AG-AF100A cinema camcorder today as an update to the (now discontinued) AF100. Key improvements (albeit, slight) include 10-bit 4:2:2 output, expanded focus assist and 2.39:1 cinema scope markers. Additionally, the AF100A now offers AVCHD 2.0 and a full-fledged 1080/60p mode.

The AF100A retails for $4,595; however, I noticed that B&H already has it in stock for $3,999. Check it out here at B&H Photo.
