Outback Photo has published a story with a link to a full resolution 4K still frame taken from a Panasonic GH4. Original photo by Nick Driftwood (used with permission). Follow the link and instructions to see the full resolution bw conversion. Quite impressive.
I remember reading (might have been The Digital Journalist, a site now defunct) that some US newspapers are moving to video-only capture and grabbing frames from that. From the quality of this frame, that looks quite plausible. Would lead to an editing time sink, no doubt.. finding the decisive one-in-1800 moment in every minute of 30fps video

Looks pretty nice. What is the max res of the photo when you pull a frame from a camera like this?

Does this spell the end for the 'decisive moment' I wonder?

I'm not sure.. would need to look at the specs. I'm not a video person (at least, not currently).

It's approximately 8-16 Megapixels, depending upon the format.

Nope...instead of triggering the shutter at the right moment, you just edit for the decisive moment.

Nikon built that into the Nikon one already out of of burst, the camera can figure out the best shot was one of their claims to fame in the original comercials.

Looks like the Panasonic GH4 will give 4096x2160 at 24p, or about 8.85 megapixels.
