At the Bench: Arri Accessories for the Sony F5/F55

Sony's new PMW-F5 and PMW-F55 cameras build upon the popular PMW-F3, and feature a Super-35mm size sensor with 2K and 4K recording options. Both the F5 and F55 are suitable for many different styles of production and can be customized with lenses and accessories to make them even more versatile solutions. Some of the existing accessories for the F3 are interchangeable with the F5 and F55, but the new form factor means some support accessories will be unique. In this article, we present the many different lenses and accessories that can be used with the cameras.

Sony has been teasing the #NewFTranformed for several weeks now, and it's finally time to reveal the meaning behind the campaign. Just introduced at NAB 2014, the ENG/EFP Build-Up Kit is designed to make the F5/F55 a truly shoulder-mountable camera.

We've covered a lot of different accessories for Sony's F5/F55 cameras, and at our booth we're featuring a couple of new ones from Solid Camera. The Scatter Box is a power breakout box that mounts onto the back of the camera and features multiple power outputs.
