Expanded Sony FX6 Full-Frame Camcorder Key Features:

Clean, Compact And Lightweight

The Sony PXW-FX6 has a lightweight and compact design; a feature that isn't too common when talking about high-end video cameras. It is quite extraordinary that the Sony FX6 packs a full-frame sensor into a body comparable to the previous S35-sensor Sony FS5. Handheld shooting is also a breeze, with a durable magnesium alloy chassis and the whole system weighing in at a mere 0.89 KG. The FX6 is something special, able to easily pair with a multitude of accessories to include grips and viewfinders, in particular the FX6's 3.5 inch LCD Viewfinder, which fits in various positions for added freedom and touch-sensitive menu control. To put into context how effective the FX6 really is, it is able to attach to larger mechanisms such as gimbals and drones; something larger full-frame cameras only dream of.

Versatile To Prioritise Work-Flow

Sharing key features with the other cameras in the Sony Cinema Line such as the VENICE and FX9, the FX6 has a much more versatile range to suit every filmmaking project. Common attributes include a full-frame sensor, filmlike colour science, compact form, high-end connector interfaces, and advanced autofocus settings. Yet, the FX6 comes up trumps with an ISO range of 320 to 409,600 compared to the FX9's 320 to 102,400 range, and top frame rates of 120p in 4K and up to 240p in HD against the FX9's top 1080p in HD. But overall, what matters is this camera's ability to shoot a simple, on-the-fly video for a client's social media account, and then shoot high-quality full-frame footage for TV all in a day's work. For freelance videographers looking to cover a varied range of professional-quality content creation, the FX6 is the one for you.

Exceptional Low-Light Capabilities

The FX6's base sensitivity is ISO 800, with an enhanced sensitivity setting of ISO 12,800 (expandable to 409,600); exceptional in low and very low-light conditions. Keeping this in mind, this cinema camera is ideal for ‘run and gun' shooting and when camera-operators are unable to control the light levels (external/on-location or documentary-style shooting). The FX6 offers further support with advanced cinematic colour science, utilising S-Cinetone for richer tonal reproduction, as well as S-Log3 and S-Gamut3.

AutoFocus Mode For Stunning Slow-Motion

Accessing Sony Alpha's remarkable autofocus features, the FX6 actions Fast Hybrid AF. This works by combining 627-point focal-plane phase-detection AF with advanced face detection and real-time eye AF in high frame rates with continuous AF. By doing so, it allows camera-operators to track fast-moving subjects in slow-motion without losing focus. The FX6 does this with flawless precision, where Fast Hybrid AF can be utilised with over 50 native E-Mount lenses and used even at 4K 120p.

Endless Combinations With Compatible Sony E-Mount Lenses

The FX6 is compatible with over 50 Sony E-Mount lenses and a whole range of third-party lenses. This broad range allows you to pick and choose which lenses best suit your individual shooting needs and budget. The Sony FE 24-105mm f/4 G OSS is a perfect starting point, giving great focal range with an aperture that works well alongside the FX6's low light sensitivity. But if you are someone in need of a whole host of different lenses, you are spoilt for choice when it comes to the FX6 and Sony E-Mount lenses.
