Sony ILME-FX6 Alpha FX6 Full-frame 4K Cinema Line Camera 10,2MP - E-Mount

ILME-FX6 Sony Alpha Full-frame 4K Cinema Line Camera 10,2MP - E-Mount.

• 4K Full-Frame 10.2MP CMOS Exmor R Sensor
• DCI 4K60p | UHD 4K120 | 1080p240
• 15+ Stops of Dynamic Range in S-Log 3 EI
• Compact Form Weighs Just <2 lb

The FX6 is the baby in the new Cinema Line family of cameras that Sony announced today - which will include the Sony Venice which is used on some of the biggest TV dramas and movies in production today. Also in the new range will be the existing 6K Sony FX9 camera which was launched last year, which is primarily used by documentary filmmakers.

4K Full-Frame CMOS Exmor R Sensor

The FX6's 10.2 MP image sensor features back-side illumination for excellent low-light performance, 627 focal plane points for speedy phase-detection autofocus, and full-frame lens compatibility that produces a rich, immersive look. The sensor's fast scan speed minimizes rolling shutter artifacts and supports high frame rates and quick autofocus responses.

15+ Stops of Dynamic Range

The Exmor R sensor also enables the FX6 to capture a whopping 15+ stops of dynamic range in Cine EI mode with S-Log3, creating nuanced, high-resolution images.

Wide ISO Range

Choose from a base ISO of 800, a high-sensitivity 12,800 ISO for lower-light capture, and a 409,600 maximum ISO for true low-light settings.

Electronically Variable ND Filters

Set the FX6's integrated neutral density (ND) filter system to auto for correctly exposed shots even in changing light conditions, or smoothly adjust the ND filter density manually in increments from 1/4 to 1/128 as you shoot; both options will produce properly exposed images without affecting your chosen depth of field.

Advanced XAVC Codec Options

The FX6 is the first compact, full-frame camera to offer UHD 4K 4:2:2 capture in the high-quality yet efficient XAVC-I codec. It also enables you to choose from a range of professional XAVC Intra and XAVC Long codecs at bit rates ranging from 35 to 600 Mb/s.

High Frame Rate Selections

For slow-motion and fast action looks, choose from full-frame rates ranging from:

• 1-60 fps in HD to DCI 4K resolutions
• 100 or 120 fps in HD through UHD 4K
• 150, 180, 200, or 240 fps in Full HD

Super35 choices include:

• 1-60, 100, and 120 fps in Full HD

Expressive Cinematic Look

Sony's S-Cinetone gamma curve offers a cinematic look with filmlike color, softer tones, and pleasing skin tone reproduction. Not only is this cinematic look available for in-camera viewing, but it can also be captured and output with minimal or no grading at all for a time-saving post process. The S-Cinetone, S-Log3, S-Gamut3, and S-Gamut3.Cine choices also streamline the process of matching FX6 footage with your VENICE or FX9 video and offer broad color-grading options.

Cfexpress Media Slots and Multiple Recording Modes

The FX6's dual media slots accept both rugged, high-performance, high-capacity Cfexpress Type A cards and widely available UHS-II/UHS-1 SDXC cards. Note that the Cfexpress Type A cards are required for 100/120 fps UHD 4K capture and 150/180/200/240 fps HD high-speed capture.
