Product Set

FX5 Body Only

Features

  • 5K Full-frame Fully-stacked Exmor RS CMOS Sensor

    The full-frame stacked Exmor RS CMOS sensor enables fast readout for high-resolution, high-frame-rate recording. Wide latitude and low noise ensure smooth gradation and natural textures, even in high-contrast scenes.

  • BIONZ XR2 with Integrated AI Processing

    The BIONZ XR2 engine delivers dramatic improvements in image, sound, communication, operation, and more. Built-in AI processing enables enhanced subject recognition¹ and deep learning-based Auto Tracing White Balance (ATW), helping you shoot with confidence.

  • Open Gate

    The FX5 offers full-frame Open Gate recording² — a first³ in the Cinema Line FX series. With 5K up to 60 fps (FF 3:2), 4K up to 120 fps (FF crop)⁴ and more, it gives you the freedom to adjust framing, speed and workflow to realize even the most ambitious vision.

  • Internal X-OCN Compressed RAW

    Capture 16-bit scene-linear X-OCN internally⁵,⁶,⁷ eliminating the need for an external RAW data recorder. With LT, C1 and C2 codecs, you can balance image quality, file size and RAW workflow flexibility to suit the production.

  • Three Base ISO

    Three Base ISO settings - a standard ISO 800, a mid-sensitivity ISO 4000, and a high-sensitivity ISO 12800⁸ for low light - are available to match your shooting environment. Capture clean shadows and wide latitude across varied lighting conditions, for consistently stunning clarity.

  • 15+ Stops of Latitude

    Wide latitude helps capture highlight and shadow detail with smooth, natural gradation. Low shadow noise preserves clarity, texture and atmosphere, letting you push your creative grading choices further.

  • Dual Gain

    Dual Gain Shooting maximizes latitude while reducing noise to enhance shadow details⁹. Making full use of the sensor’s capability, it delivers smooth, natural gradients for greater editing flexibility.

  • High-frame-rate Capture

    High frame rates open up striking slow-motion possibilities. The FX5 records up to 5K at 60 fps⁴ and 4K at 120 fps⁴, giving creators the power to capture fast-paced action with impressive detail and clarity — ideal for everything from cinematic storytelling to sharp sports and documentary footage.

  • Precise, Reliable AF and Tracking

    With built-in AI processing, the BIONZ XR2 engine accurately recognizes human, animal, and bird eyes (Real-time Eye AF)¹. Fast Hybrid AF uses up to 759 points¹⁰ to ensure accurate focus and tracking that keeps up with quick-moving subjects, even in dark scenes and when shooting with a shallow depth of field.

  • Built-in De-squeeze for Anamorphic Shooting

    Built-in de-squeeze support makes anamorphic shooting easier on set. With 1.3x, 1.5x, 1.6x, 1.8x and 2.0x settings, the FX5 works smoothly with a wide range of anamorphic lenses.

  • Deep Learning-based Illumination Estimation

  • S-Cinetone

    S-Cinetone brings Sony cinema color science to the FX5, delivering natural skin tones, smooth gradation and a polished look straight out of camera.

  • Wide-gamut Color

    With color gamuts exceeding both BT.2020 and DCI-P3, S-Gamut3 and S-Gamut3.Cine retain broad color information for more precise grading and easier color matching with VENICE 2 in multi-camera shoots.

  • Three S-Log3 Modes

    From cinematic shoots to run-and-gun, choose Cine EI, Cine EI Quick or Flexible ISO¹¹ to capture imagery with maximum latitude. You can also import up to 16 user LUTs¹² allowing you to easily monitor the intended look in real-time.

  • 5-axis Stabilization

    A precision stabilization unit and gyro sensors combine to provide optical 5-axis in-body stabilization. An enhanced stabilization unit expands the roll-direction compensation range by up to 2x, effectively reducing handheld roll shake¹³.

Questions & Answers

  • I saw that bestbuy has the release date has not been announced but the other online store says August 18. Is that the actual date for shipping?

    Everything I have seen online supports that date. I think it just depends on when the dealers will get them. From what I've seen, places like Sony themselves or B&H get first dibs on the products. So, seeing that Best Buy is not a preferred dealer, in that it's not the first to get them, it could be later.

    Answered by Adam

  • I just pre-ordered the Sony fx5 priced at $5,499.00; however, i just noticed that there's another version of the camera priced at $4,899.00. What are the differences?

    I believe the XLR handle unit is included in your purchase
