Brilliant 4K Footage Straight Out of Camera
Capable of XAVC-I Class 300 internal recording with 10-bit 4:2:2 chroma sub-sampling, the Sony FX6 offers stunningly rich DCI-4K video at up to 60 fps, and 4K (QFHD) video at 120 fps with AF. A future-oriented BIONZ XRTM image processor provides super-fast readout speeds, while sophisticated heat dissipation allows extended recording at high resolutions and frame rates. The inbuilt S-Cinetone colour profile removes the need for lengthy colour grading, giving you expressive hues and amazing tonal depth straight out of the camera.
Hybrid AF for Pinpoint Precision
With Sony E-mount lenses the Sony FX6 delivers incredibly smooth and responsive AF performance, so you can master even the most challenging shots. Using intelligent tracking and on-sensor phase detection, Hybrid AF quickly and reliably tracks subjects across almost the entire frame. Real-time Eye AF and Face Detection deliver razor-sharp focus in real-time, even when your subject is looking down or at a high angle. So even at shallow depths of field and 120p high frame rates in 4K (QFHD), all you need to worry about is composing the best shot.
Grab and Shoot
Featuring a dust- and weather-resistant, magnesium-alloy structure, the Sony FX6 will withstand the most relentless shooting demands. But at a compact and ultra-light 0.89kg, the Sony FX6 is also the perfect ‘grab and shoot’ camera. Its modular design easily adapts to diverse shooting requirements. The ergonomic Smart Handle promotes easy high- or low-angle shooting and can be easily reconfigured if you want to use a gimbal, drone, or underwater housing. Easily control key functions using the detachable Smart Grip (which can be adjusted via a single button) or the 3.5”, 2.76 million-dot LCD touch monitor.
Designed for Professionals
The Sony FX6 offers all the functionality and connectivity you’d expect from a cine camera, including TC output, SuperSpeed USB 5Gbps for fast workflows, and dual CFexpress and UHS-II card slots. 12G-SDI and HDMI outputs support external monitoring and external recording in 16-bit RAW. Four audio channels, dual XLR inputs, and intuitively placed volume/monitoring controls facilitate high-quality internal audio recording. Meanwhile, 5Ghz and 2.4ghz WiFi allow you to take advantage of a myriad of advanced wireless production features.
