Sony FX6

The Sony FX6 Full-Frame Camera  offers versatile, cine-style imaging in a compact camera body. With the ability to capture up to 15+ stops of dynamic range, Sony’s S-Cinetone gamma for filmlike skin tones, and up to 10-bit, 4:2:2 XAVC-I recording, the FX6 is poised to both supplement your FX9 or VENICE cameras.

PXW-FX6:

Rent the Sony FX6 from MP&E Cameras and Lighting for your video production. Weighing just under 2 lb, the FX6 body is a full 2 lb lighter than the FX9 and measuring 6 x 4.6″, it packs a full-frame sensor into a body comparable to the S35-sensor Sony FS5. This camera has the ability to capture up to 15+ stops of dynamic range, Sony’s S-Cinetone gamma for filmlike skin tones, and up to 10-bit, 4:2:2 XAVC-I video files. While the FX6 fits seamlessly into a pro-cine on-set workflow, it also offers several features that are a boon for a single-operator user. These include fast and accurate phase-detection autofocus with both Face Detection and real-time Eye autofocus. Not to mention the auto and manual ND Filter settings, that smoothly adjust the ND filter density manually in increments from 1/4 to 1/128 as you shoot, for quick exposure compensation. The FX6 also features a time-saving, 3.5″ LCD monitor with touchscreen access to key menu settings and versatile positioning for comfortable operating. Constructed with a lightweight yet durable magnesium alloy chassis, the FX6 body offers maximum reliability and efficiently disperses heat to enable extended recording times. Exterior seams, buttons, and interfaces have been treated with updated sealing that improves the camera’s dust and moisture resistance as well.
