Capture the impossible with expanded ISO sensitivity

Capture the impossible with expanded ISO sensitivity Capture usable images in near total darkness with an impressive ISO expanded range up to 409600 2 . The full-frame sensor coupled with innovative light gathering ensures limitless shooting possibilities.

Stunning bokeh and full-frame creativity

Stunning bokeh and full-frame creativity Realize beautiful 4K imagery with the creative freedom made possible by a full-frame sensor. Capture every detail from the scene with shallow depth of field and stunning bokeh for a truly cinematic look.

Cinematic color science with S-Cinetone ™

Cinematic color science with S-Cinetone ™ S-Cinetone color, developed for Sony's acclaimed FX9, is the default look on the FX6. Precisely tuned to meet the requirements of today's content creators with rich color and natural skin tones, it produces fresh and vivid images straight out of camera without grading, while retaining plenty of latitude for post production.

Impressive dynamic range for limitless expression

Impressive dynamic range for limitless expression At its base sensitivity of ISO 800 4 the FX6 offers optimal dynamic range for well-lit interiors and outdoor documentary shooting. An enhanced ISO 12800 4 sensitivity is designed for challenging low-light, morning and evening shots. The FX6 offers an exceptional 15+ stops 2 of dynamic range-beyond the perception of even the human eye in many conditions-allowing for unprecedented creative freedom in color grading and post.

Real-time Eye AF and Face Detection supported

Real-time Eye AF and Face Detection supported Real-time Eye AF and Face Detection ensure accurate, stable focus acquisition for interviews, events, and anywhere where precise focus on people is essential. Sophisticated real-time processing realizes pinpoint eye focus even when subjects are looking down or up at steep angles, allowing the operator to concentrate fully on composing the best shot.

Autofocus with Sony E-mount lenses

Autofocus with Sony E-mount lenses Experience smooth, responsive autofocus with Sony E-mount lenses, with premium optical performance and operability for demanding cinematography applications. Unique actuator technology in Sony E-mount lenses provides faster and more precise AF performance, supporting your creative endeavors.

Magnesium body and frame for high durability with light weight

Magnesium body and frame for high durability with light weight To perform reliably in challenging environments, the main body, covers and top handle are made from a production-tested, lightweight magnesium alloy. The main frame achieves high strength and durability with minimum weight in order to maximize mobility.

Architecture to prevent thermal shut down

Architecture to prevent thermal shut down The custom ventilation system and chassis design help to prevent the thermal shut down of shooting8 at high frame rates and 4K (QFHD) resolutions. The number of heat sinks, the shape of air intakes and exhaust vents as well as the location of the low-noise fan 9 , and airflow paths have all been calculated with precision to ensure that optimum ventilation is achieved.

Networked for high mobility

Networked for high mobility Wi-Fi ® connectivity enables a host of advanced wireless production features such as remote control via smartphones or tablets and the Content Browser Mobile app. Connect easily with either One-touch NFC or manual pairing.

Metadata facilitates editing in Catalyst

Metadata facilitates editing in Catalyst The FX6 records three types of metadata: image stabilization, clip flag and camera rotation. These can be useful when previewing and preparing to edit in Sony's free Catalyst Browse or cost-effective Catalyst Prepare software 15 . [1] Shoot [2] Edit

Extended warranties are usually very inexpensive and can save you thousands in the future. It's simple and inexpensive to purchase extended warranties and one of the smartest ways to protect your investment.

Electronics can be large, heavy and expensive. You probably don't have the special tools or expertise needed to fix them in a crisis. If you can spare a few thousand dollars without batting an eyelash for new electronics should they break tomorrow, don't buy a warranty. But if you're like most of us, protect yourself by purchasing inexpensive extended warranties when you buy a new product and save yourself big money in the long run.
