Sony is teasing the launch of a new CineAlta camera on Monday in what is possibly one of the shortest, most dramatic and least informative trailers ever. There’s been no word on what it is or when it might be released but our guess it’s not going to be a camera for your average videographer.

CineAlta is Sony’s series of professional digital movie cameras that replicate many of the same features as 35mm film motion picture cameras. The first CineAlta camera was developed in 1999 and was used by George Lucas to film Episode II of the Star Wars prequel trilogy, which just so happens to be the first major motion shot entirely digitally.
