Sony Alpha FX3 ILME-FX3 | Full-frame Cinema Line Camera

Product Information

This means that we may soon see exactly how the two combine when Sony reveals more about its first drone soon. Sony has previously said that it'll be launching "a new business targeted for professional photography and video production in the spring of 2021", which means sometime between March and May. In fact, it's fair to say that the FX3 is effectively a redesigned A7S III, with the two cameras sharing a lot of the same specs. Both are 12.1MP full-frame cameras that are compatible with Sony's E-Mount lenses and can shoot 4K/60p video. The FX3 offers an exceptional 15+ stops2 of dynamic range to handle settings ranging from well-lit interiors and outdoors in mid-day to morning and evening shots. Capture every nuance, and allow for unprecedented cinematic freedom in color grading. Stunning bokeh and full-frame creativity Not guaranteed to be 100% dust and moisture proof. XLR handle is not designed to be dust and moisture proof.

On the face of it, these cameras offer the same 4K video recording capabilities and slow-motion capture of up to 240fps in full HD. However, while the FX30 and FX3 can both capture 4K 120p video, the FX30 has to use a much tighter 1.6x crop, while the FX3’s 120p crop factor is only 1.1x. We’d give the FX3 the edge for slow-motion capture. 6. Stabilization Visit us and you'll always find a friendly welcome.

Heatsink placement, airflow structure, and a silent cooling fan work to optimize cooling even during long shoots. XLR adaptor and digital input for quality audio However, the FX30 offers the same design, handling, build and cinematic features at half the price. It’s also an effective and useful stills camera, where the FX3 is not. The FX3 features 5-axis optical in-body image stabilisation - highly effective for handheld shooting. A high precision stabilisation unit and gyro sensors have made it possible to provide an Active Modethat is dedicated to movie shooting in each format, including 4K. In-body image stabilisation means that effective stabilisation can be achieved with a wide range of lenses, including E-mount lenses that do not include stabilisation of their own. In addition, the FX3 records image stabilisation metadata that can be done more practical adjustment during post-production using Catalyst Browse/Prepare. With a compact design for solo shooters, travel applications, and to serve as an ideal B cam, the Sony FX3 borrows from both the Cinema Line and Alpha series of cameras to create an optimized portable cinema camera. The FX3 features all of the imaging attributes you’d expect from this class but sports a newly designed body that’s hand-holdable, with a streamlined and minimal profile, and has a “cage-free” design, indicating the ability to secure various accessories directly to the camera body.

The FX3's suitability for Airpeak isn't a huge surprise, given that the drone's first press shots showed it carrying a Sony A7S III – a camera that weighs a mere 16g less than the FX3. To enable high-quality audio, the XLR handle unit includes two XLR/TRS audio inputs to the FX3. With an optional XLR microphone, digital audio data can be directly transferred to the camera for outstanding audio quality. Camera settings provide audio recording formats, including 4-channel 24-bit recording. Because the XLR adaptor is integrated into the handle and does not require any additional cables or batteries, it offers a stress-free setup. Ultra-high sensitivity with ISO expandable to 409,600 for very low light conditions and 15+ stops of dynamic range The FX3 is still beefier and heavier than a mirrorless camera like the Sony A6600, but not by much – and it looks small compared to DSLR-sized rivals like the Canon EOS C70.USB charging and power delivery are only supported via the USB Type-C® terminal. Compatibility is not guaranteed with all USB PD devices. A battery must be installed in the camera when supplying USB power.

Capture the scene in cinematic 4K resolution, with the shallow depth of field, stunning bokeh, and cinematic freedom made possible with a full-frame sensor. Cinematic color science of S-Cinetone™ We and everybody else raved about the Sony FX3 when it first appeared, as a ‘proper’ cinema camera at a full frame mirrorless camera price. But the FX30 makes it look distinctly weak, with far better stills capability, a like-for-like match in cinema camera features and, although it has a smaller Super35 sensor, it captures oversampled 6K rather than the pixel-for-pixel 4K of the FX3 – an advantage that could easily offset or even nullify the FX3’s larger sensor size. Sony internal tests. USB power supply (USB-PD device, 9V/3A output), XAVC S-I (All-I), 4K 60p 10-bit 4:2:2, 77 °F (ambient, camera when recording started), Auto power: Off, Temperature: High, Cooling fan: Auto. The duration will vary depending on the shooting conditions. The maximum continuous recording time for a single movie shooting session is approximately 13 hours (a product specification limit). Tally lights on the front and rear of the FX3 indicate whether the camera is recording at any given moment. They are clearly visible to both the camera operator and the person performing in front of the camera. Vari-angle LCD touch-panel monitor Sony says this is because they wanted to make the FX3 as compact as possible, but it's an omission that could make it less appealing to some filmmakers. Cinema paradisoBecause it's designed for solo, run-and-gun filmmaking, the FX3 also has in-body image stabilization (IBIS) along with an electronic Active Mode, which gives you even stronger stabilization at the expense of a 10% crop. Slightly less impressive is the absence of built-in ND filters, which are a pretty useful for filmmakers, particularly when shooting in bright conditions.
