    This camera is just like the FX3, but opens up the lense choices and is more cost effective. Its a great B-cam, and crash cam.

    A TRUE GEM

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Great entry level professional cinema camera with all the bells and whistles. The image quality is at par with cameras costing 3 or 4 times more. Has all the manual controls you need, superb auto focusing, ability to work with luts, very acceptable low light even with high ISO, light weight and small/portable to carry around, Coupled with the XLR audio handle (optional) can give you complete professional control over your audio signal. The recommended lens for this camera is the Sony E PZ 18-105 f/4 lens if you are covering events.
