Sony today officially announced the FX6 (model ILME-FX6V) camera, the latest addition to Sony's Cinema Line, a series of products that brings the company's expertise in imaging technology to a broad range of filmmakers and content creators.
Sony's Cinema Line, which also includes the VENICE and FX9 cameras, delivers a coveted filmic look cultivated from extensive experience in digital cinema production, as well as enhanced operability thanks to an innovative body design, extensive durability and intuitive customisability.
As part of the Cinema Line, the all-new FX6 incorporates Sony's core technologies of image sensor, processing engine, and AF (autofocus) performance. FX6 is also compatible with the wide range of Sony E-mount lenses for creative flexibility.
The new FX6 is the latest example of Sony's drive to continuously push the boundaries of imaging technology based on the needs of our customers, said Yann Salmon Legagneur, Director of Product Marketing, Digital Imaging, Sony Europe. With the advancement of our Cinema Line, we are dedicated to enabling the extraordinary skills and talent of today's content creators and cinematographers. The FX6 leverages technology from Sony's industry-leading VENICE cinema camera and marries it with the best of Sony's innovative Alpha mirrorless camera technology.
Full-frame Cinematic Image Quality
The new camera features a 10.2 MP[ii] full-frame back-illuminated Exmor R CMOS sensor that delivers a 15+ stop wide dynamic range[iii] with high sensitivity and low noise. FX6's base sensitivity is ISO 800 with an enhanced sensitivity setting of ISO 12,800[iv] expandable to 409,600[v] for shooting in low and very low light conditions. It is capable of recording in XAVC All Intra 4:2:2 10-bit depth with stunning image quality in DCI 4K (4096 x 2160 - up to 60p), QFHD 4K (3840 x 2160 - up to 120p[vi]) and FHD (1920 1080 - up to 240p) for incredibly detailed slow motion. When more convenient file sizes are needed, FX6 can record in XAVC Long GOP 4:2:0 8-bit QFHD 4K (3840 x 2160 - up to 120pvi) and 4:2:2 10-bit FHD (1920 1080 - up to 240p). FX6 also includes a BIONZ XR image processing engine, first used in the new Sony Alpha 7S III camera, providing up to four times faster processing performance compared to the FS5 II.
Developed with the same expertise as technology from Sony's world-leading VENICE cinema camera, FX6 offers advanced cinematic colour science including S-CinetoneTM for richer tonal reproduction right out of the box as well as S-Log3,S-Gamut3 and S-Gamut3.Cine for post-production flexibility. FX6's cinematic colour science is optimised for premium applications by capturing the maximum dynamic range from the sensor and providing creative freedom. Leveraging the colour science of VENICE, FX6 also allows productions to easily match footage with other cameras in the Cinema Line.
Advanced Video Features
Pulling from Sony Alpha's impressive AF features, FX6 offers Fast Hybrid AF by combining 627-point[vii] focal plane phase-detection AF with advanced Face Detection and Real-time Eye AF in high frame rates with continuous AF, allowing camera operators to effortlessly and precisely track fast-moving subjects in slow motion without losing focus. Fast Hybrid AF works with over 50 native E-mount lenses and at even 4K 120p.[viii] The camera can also capture up to five times slow-motion with 4K (QFHD) 120fps.
The new FX6 also offers internal electronic variable ND filters for easy and seamless control of the camera's filter density. Users can set variable ND to auto or adjust the filter density manually in smooth increments from 1/4 to 1/128 for perfectly exposed images without affecting the depth of field or shutter angle, even during changing lighting conditions. Combined with the camera's ultra-high sensitivity, the electronic variable ND filter provides users with outstanding creative control in almost any shooting environment.

Outstanding Mobility and Operability
Built with a durable magnesium alloy chassis, measuring just 4.6 inches x 6 inches x 4.5 inches (116 millimeters x 153 millimeters x 114 millimeters) and weighing just 1.96 pounds (0.89 kilograms), FX6 has a compact and lightweight design making it easy for users to grab and shoot at any time. The new camera includes a heat dissipating structure to keep the camera's components within their normal operating ranges to prevent overheating, even during extended recording times. FX6 also features a modular design allowing users to easily pair accessories, such as grips and viewfinders, or attach the camera to other mechanisms, such as gimbals and drones.
FX6's 3.5-inch LCD Viewfinder can be attached on multiple locations of the camera body for added freedom and easy menu control with touch operation. Using a quick access control menu for commonly accessed features, camera operators can change key settings with a single touch including Codec, Imager Scan Mode, Picture Size and Frequency, Ba
