I’ll also take a look at the first in a new series of purpose-built full-format E-mount cinema lenses from Sony that feature autofocus, electronically controlled iris and servo zoom control: the FE C 16-35mm T3.1 G.
Using a smaller body, reminiscent of the FS5 and FS5 II, the FX6 packs a 4K full-frame sensor with similarly staggering low-light capabilities as the A7S III, along with Fast Hybrid Auto Focus, high frame rates (up to 120 fps in UHD and 240 fps in full HD), a full-frame E mount, and full Cine EI mode with S-Log3 for more than 15 stops of dynamic range.
I discuss the body design, sensor and recording capabilities, inputs and outputs, touch-screen menus, and finally wrap up with a look at the new lens. Sony’s brought a number of technologies together to create the FX6, and with comparatively few compromises, so be sure to check out the video for much more on this exciting new full-format camera.
