Trankilstef Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 It seems Sony is close to reveal the new cinema camera FX6 wich appears at the end of this video released today : Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ade towell Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 Will be interesting to see how this compares with the new RF Canon Cine cameras, it needs to have the colour science of the FX9 rather than the A7s3 to really stand a chance imo Juank, neosushi, Trankilstef and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yurolov Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 Still a bit too big imo if you are looking at the size of these smaller RF cine cameras. They need to get it so it can fit on gimbals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kisaha Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 We just wrap a feature shot with the FX9 and it is surprisingly small for such a camera. If the 6 is smaller, is a lot less than you think. Also, the FX9 is a full frame workhorse, I am not sure there are full frame workhorse videocameras smaller than this.

IronFilm Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 If this has 4K 10bit (which it surely does???) then I'm looking forward to the FS7 price drops! aaa123jc and maxmizer 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoff CB Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 This will probably be my next video camera as long as it has 4K 10-bit 4:2:2 30p with no crop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mmmbeats Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 Looking forward to comparing this to the (rumoured) Canon C70. Really not sure which way I'll lean, but excited about both cameras. ntblowz and neosushi 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like they hold off a7s3 cause of R5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kisaha Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 I hate to admit it, but Sony is doing all the right things lately! I was waiting for so long for Canon to do the right things, and I stick to EF most of the times, but now Sony just seems like a wiser direction. Still I believe Canon is a better lens company though. I do not like all the Sony lens desings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like they hold off a7s3 cause of R5 I doubt if Sony held off the release of A7Siii because of R5. The Japanese companies know the product release cycles of each other, their philosophy is never compete directly against one another; market differentiation is the name of game.

Wow. But I think the 7Q+ is overkill for a FS7, and also FS7 prices are around US$3K ish at the moment. So you could get a FS7 by itself for quite a bit less than NZ$6.1K But that's a solid price for the FS5, miiiiight have gone for it myself. (part of me is still wondering if I should have gone for that cheap Sony F5 on trademe a year ago, but probably good I didn't???) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrgl Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 @IronFilm the used FS5M2 and 7Q I picked up has been the best camera package I've ever used, camcorder ergonomics with cinema camera features Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scotchtape Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 2 more sleeps! Rumors say basically A7SIII in FS5 form factor. That would work a for a bunch of people, but for the increase price I'd be hoping for better IQ, at least something that can more closely match FX9. I was thinking of maybe stretching for one, but if the actual IQ isn't any better than the A7SIII then there's no point for me...except, to look like I have a bigger camera. I feel like FS5 made sense at the time compared to the A7SII, but FX6 when A7SIII is around, less of a need for it unless you need the form factor and internal ND. Definitely not helping swing people waffling about C70 vs FX6. Oh well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronFilm Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 Rumored specs: Quote More Sony FX6 details coming out: 10.2 MP Exmor R CMOS Full Frame 4K-class Sensor with 15+ stop Dynamic Range Full Frame 10bit 4:2:2 DCI 4K Up to 120fps Dual Base ISO 800 & 12800 BIONZ XR Processor 2ch Audio Input SD Card / CF Express Type-A Card S-log 3 & S-Cinetone V-ND in body High Speed 4D AF System LCD Touch screen FX6 can shoot RAW also It should be the same sensor as A7s3 which is a big advantage compared to FX9 Cool specs, but can it run Crysis? ntblowz 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ade towell Posted November 16, 2020 Share Posted November 16, 2020 No evf again - this is a big annoyance for me personally and I hate that this seems to be the way of the smaller video/cine cameras - C70 has the same omission (although so did the larger Sony fx9, fs7 - those tacked on loupes don't really count). If it has the same image as the fx9 then it could still be an interesting camera, but if it looks like the A7s3 then no thanks, especially if you can't turn NR off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
currensheldon Posted November 16, 2020 Share Posted November 16, 2020 Oh, both XLRs on the handle - bummer. Since FS5 and C200, I never want my audio separated from the core. C70 is looking like the winner in the lower end cinema line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Romero 2 Posted November 16, 2020 Share Posted November 16, 2020 Ok, let's talk about SEX for a moment here. And by sex, I of course mean lenses... Are there any lenses that take advantage of the AF systems on the FX6 / FX9 or C70 that are either parfocal or at least have minimal focus breathing? Because that's the great thing about the Panasonic lenses for the S series of cameras. For example, with my S1 I can go from an out of focus shot to... ummm... a more out of focus shot with minimal breathing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
