4K Camera for $945

Point Grey's ice-cubed sized camera uses Sony's new 8.8 MP IMX1221 Exmor R sensor and can pipe 4,096x2160 images through a USB 3.0 port.  This officially makes it the world's coolest web camera.

It limits the frame rate to 21 FPS (185 mbps) but this may be just to use the USB 3.0 port.  The camera is designed for industrial applications including optical inspection, ophthalmology and interactive multimedia but Point Grey does list broadcast as a market, too.
