Sure, he can film in 4k. But since video sharing/streaming sites like twitch and youtube do not support uploaded videos in 4k resolution, buying this would be pointless.

 

Also, 4k videos in Adobe Flash? No thank you.

Correct, YouTube allows you to upload videos in 4k but it does not stream in 4k. It'll just stream the video in 2k instead.

Youtube will probably need to expand their servers later in order to support the file sizes of 4k video. :)

YouTube has 4k videos, whether or not they're streamed in 4k is another question. With they're new codec or H.265 we might see 4k being streamed though...

 

Also you can join the HTML 5 trial.

No, YouTube does not have 4k videos. And yes, I already know about the HTML5 beta. They've been doing that since HTML5 was being built into modern browsers.

Yes they do. YouTube has supported 4k videos since 2010. Here is a playlist of 4k films on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=5BF9E09ECEC8F88F

The other day I searched for a video on YouTube that was supposed to be 4k but instead it was just 2k when looking at the video info. The link you posted does lead to truly 4k videos, so I it seems I'm wrong.

Yeah they're definitely 4K, not that I can see any difference on a 1080p display but YouTube Options is allowing me to download in 3072p... you don't see that every day xD.

It's okay. Everyone make mistakes...like stating a video is 4k when it's actually 2k...that's their fault.

Linus could at least post the 4K videos here for us to see if we really want to see them.

Linus  will probably not shoot at 4k anyways, or at least not yet. I mean what's the point? He's gonna get the NEX-IFR5 add-on for $2,500 plus $5,350 for the AXS-R5 recorder. After spending another 8 grand, what will he gain? Almost no one in his audience has a 4k display, Linus himself doesn't have one as far as we know. There's no point, no one can view it in that resolution anyway.
