Sony FX3 A E Mount Overview
Cinematic Capture in a Compact, Streamlined Form
With a compact design for solo shooters, travel applications, or as an ideal B camera, the Sony FX3A borrows from both the Cinema Line and Alpha series of cameras to create an optimized portable cinema camera. The FX3A features all the imaging attributes you’d expect from this class but sports a new lightweight, handheld form with a streamlined profile and a “cage-free” design, offering the ability to secure various accessories directly to the camera body.
The Sony Fx3 A Camera is a compact, full-frame cinema camera designed to bridge the gap between Sony’s professional Cinema Line (like the FX6) and its mirrorless Alpha series (like the a7S III), making it ideal for solo shooters, travel, and B-camera work.
