Sony FX3 Full-Frame Cinema Line Camera

Introducing the FX3 Full-Frame Cinema Camera from Sony, a compact yet feature-packed addition to its Cinema Line, designed for single-operator image capture with professional-grade video capabilities. Combining the high-quality video capture of the FX6 with the compact form factor of the a7S III, the FX3 is ideal as a B-camera for larger productions or for photographers transitioning into video.

Featuring a full-frame 12.1MP Exmor R BSI CMOS sensor and BIONZ XR processor, the FX3 captures stunning UHD 4K video with the signature shallow depth of field of full-frame cameras. With an expanded ISO range of 80 to 409,600 and over 15 stops of dynamic range, the FX3 delivers sensitive and nuanced image capture with minimal rolling shutter effects.
