Sony FX3A Full-Frame Cinema Camera
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.
Firmware Update v2.00
Firmware update v2.00 provides multiple features, including the BIG6 home screen, where you can easily review shooting settings and equipment configurations, 1.5x and 1.6x magnifications in the De-Squeeze Display, support for the Focus Magnifier and Auto Magnifier in MF settings while using the Bright Monitoring feature, and raw video output via HDMI that enables external recording of Blackmagic Raw. This update also enables the camera to automatically recognize a separate USB-LAN conversion adapter, filter camera images for smartphone and FTP transfers, and record in the metadata the optical density of pre-registered ND filters.

Expressive UHD 4K Video Capture
The FX3A's 12.1MP Exmor R BSI CMOS sensor (10.2MP effective in video mode) is paired with a BIONZ XR processor to achieve UHD 4K video capture with internal 10-bit 4:2:2 sampling or 16-bit raw output. The sensor's BSI design heightens clarity and sensitivity, with an expandable ISO 80-409,600 range and a greater-than-15-stop dynamic range for working in mixed lighting conditions. Benefiting color and tonal control, the S-Cinetone mode can be used for matching to VENICE, FX9, or FX6 sources, and there is also S-Log3/2 gamut support and 10-bit HLG for simple HDR productions. The sensor and processor also work together to greatly reduce rolling shutter, and the sensor's design incorporates a Fast Hybrid AF system for intelligent and quick focusing performance and subject tracking.
4K Full-Frame CMOS Exmor R Sensor
A 12.1MP Exmor R sensor and BIONZ XR processor offer the FX3A true cinematic expression with 10.2MP effective video and 12.1MP still capture. The full-frame sensor provides shallow depth of field looks, impressive bokeh, and reduced rolling shutter artifacts. A base sensitivity of 80-102,400 expands to a lofty 409,600 for impressive low-light capture, and 15+ stops of dynamic range reproduce the nuances of both spectacular exteriors and carefully lit interior scenes with plenty of allowance for color grading.
S-Cinetone Color
Beautiful skin tone reproduction and a softer-toned look that complements your VENICE, FX9, or FX6 footage are created using the FX3A's default S-Cinetone color setting. S-Log-3, S-Gamut3, S-Gamut3.Cine, and 10-bit 4:2:2 support help maintain rich gradation and color matching with the range of Sony Cinema Line cameras, while HLG HDR provides the option of direct HLG playback without the need for grading.

Video Recording
Capture sharp, detailed images at rates up to 4K 120p with up to 5x slow motion at 24p output. Recording options include the ability to output DCI 4K+ in 16-bit raw over HDMI to compatible recorders while simultaneously recording XAVC 4K and proxies in-camera. Internal 4K recording options include 4:2:2 10-bit color with All-Intra and Long GOP codecs.
- Cooling features like a silent fan and a heatsink dissipate warmth to enable uninterrupted recording up to 4K60.
- Dual SD card slots accept both CFexpress Type A and SDXC cards for easy relay or backup recording.
- Super 35 1080p capture at rates up to 240p.
Steady Focus
- Now, even solo shooters can keep the action in focus thanks to real-time Tracking and Eye autofocus functions made possible by AI-based algorithms, plus a simple touchscreen focus function.
- Seven choices of AF Transition Speed let you rack focus, and five AF Subject Shift settings enable you to adjust the speed when shifting from a locked-on subject.
- Fast Hybrid AF uses 627 points to cover approximately 89% of the image frame.
Ergonomic Form for Solo Operation
The FX3A's cage-free design enables you to mount ¼"-20 compatible accessories directly on the camera or the detachable handle, saving you the weight and setup/breakdown time of a camera cage. The clustered record button, focus and menu controls, and six assignable buttons all help to enable single-handed control, leaving your left hand free for balancing or controlling your lens.
Tilting Touchscreen LCD
The fold-out 3" touchscreen LCD has a crisp 2.35MP resolution and can be variously angled for optimal viewing.
Easily Viewable Tally Lights
- Top, front, and rear tally indicators let the operator, talent, and sound person know precisely when the camera is recording.
- This enables more accurately timed movements and dialogue delivery.
Quality Audio Options
Pro audio recording options include:
- A detachable XLR adapter handle with two XLR-1/4" TRS combo audio inputs.
- A mic holder and a 3.5mm input for adding a microphone.
- Up to 4-channel, 24-bit audio recording.
Remote Control, Streaming, and Transfers

- You can also stream your content using your computer and the Imaging Edge Webcam app.
Post-Production Stabilization with E-Mount Lenses
- Sony's Catalyst Prepare/Browse software uses shake metadata to stabilize your image.
- An adjustable balance between shake compensation and image area trimming lets you fine-tune the image.

Faster focusing performance, improved close-up shooting, and enhanced control are all benefits of the redesigned focusing system.
- The autofocus system's linear motors contribute to improved focusing performance, resulting in a faster, quieter, and more precise AF ideal for both video and stills.
- Faster AF means improved focusing when working with fast-moving subjects; support is available for shooting at up to 120 fps with the Sony a9 III, full AF is maintained even when shooting stopped down, and focus tracking is possible even when in shooting slow motion 4K 120p and Full HD 240p.
Improved Control and Video Capabilities
Just as camera design has grown to appeal to both photo and video shooters, this lens has also been updated with attributes that specifically appeal to the needs of video shooters.
- The lens supports Dynamic/Active Mode image stabilization in compatible cameras.
- Supports the Breathing Compensation function in select cine-line and Alpha cameras.
- Manual aperture ring can be de-clicked for silent operation, and the zoom smoothness can be adjusted depending on the desired torque.
Compact, Lightweight, and Robust Design
Bringing a bright, f/2.8 maximum aperture to a compact and lightweight optic, the lens is primed for a broad spectrum of use cases and remains a weather-sealed, durable lens for use in trying working conditions.
- Fit with a manual aperture ring, tactile exposure control is possible. This ring can be de-clicked for smooth and silent iris pulls, or it can be locked in the 'A' position for camera-based aperture switching.
- One programmable focus hold button and a focus mode switch for intuitive focus control.
- Dust- and moisture-resistant design for use when working in inclement weather conditions. The front lens element has a fluorine coating that repels water, oil, and other contaminants and makes the lens easier to clean.
- Included lens hood has been redesigned to complement the lens's sleek design by reducing both its diameter and length.
