Sony FX5 Cinema Line
16.60 Mpx, Full frameProduct details
Experience ultimate creative flexibility – with 5K Open Gate and internal RAW recording using three professional codecs. With support for wide anamorphic formats, this sensor captures the full image and offers the flexibility and image quality required for professional productions.
The 16.6-MP sensor, combined with the BIONZ XR2 processor, delivers an enormous dynamic range of over 15 stops for impressive exposure and detail in dark areas. With Three-Base ISO and Dual Gain technology, this system produces exceptionally clear and noise-free images even in low-light conditions.
Capture the most thrilling action moments with 4K at 240p and 5K at 120p recording*. A significantly higher sensor readout speed minimises the rolling shutter effect, whilst improved low-light AF ensures that precise focus is maintained during high-speed sequences. This makes it the most reliable tool for solo operators and B-cam professionals.
Designed to meet the demands of professional film shoots, this body features a detachable, tiltable electronic viewfinder and a larger, adjustable 4-axis LCD screen. Whether for a lightweight gimbal setup or a fully equipped production rig – the optimised ergonomics and advanced monitoring functions provide the precise feedback that professionals need.
With dedicated compatibility for time code (TC) cables, this system bridges the gap between compact filmmaking and large-scale productions. With 32-bit float audio recording via the grip and two USB-C ports, this camera integrates seamlessly into professional workflows. This ensures that audio and video remain synchronised and your data transfer is lightning-fast.
Designed for modern cinematographers, the FX5 features a new high-capacity battery and improved Wi-Fi stability. With 4K 60p live streaming functions and enhanced network security, you can deliver professional content directly on location with absolute reliability and stability.
