The Sony FX2 Digital Cinema Camera is Sony’s most advanced Cinema Line mirrorless camera, pairing a 33MP Full-Frame BSI CMOS Exmor R sensor with the BIONZ XR processor and a dedicated AI processing unit to deliver stunning DCI 4K video with 10-bit 4:2:2 color, over 15 stops of dynamic range, and dual-base ISO performance at 800 and 4000 — making it equally at home on a film set or in the field.
Beyond its cinematic video credentials, the FX2 redefines versatility with AI-powered autofocus, Dynamic Active stabilization, a 3.68m-dot tilting OLED EVF, 16-bit RAW output via HDMI, and hybrid still-image capture at 33MP in S-Log3 — giving photographers and cinematographers in Egypt and worldwide a single body that handles every creative challenge without compromise.
Key features
- 7K Oversampled 4K Cinema: Records DCI 4K internally at 10-bit 4:2:2 in full-frame (4K30 with full-pixel readout) or Super 35 mode (up to 4K60), plus 16-bit RAW output via HDMI for maximum post-production flexibility.
- 15+ Stops Dynamic Range & Dual-Base ISO: Expandable ISO up to 204800 with dual-base ISO at 800/4000 in S-Log3, S-Cinetone, and HLG picture profiles to capture clean, grade-ready footage in any lighting condition.
- AI-Powered Autofocus & Auto Framing: Deep-learning subject recognition tracks people, animals, and vehicles in real time — with Eye AF improved 30% over the FX3/FX30 — plus intelligent auto framing keeps subjects centered automatically.
- Comprehensive 5-Axis Stabilization: Combines in-body optical image stabilization with AI-driven Dynamic Active Mode and a framing stabilizer, while embedding shake metadata into footage for enhanced post-production stabilization.
- Hybrid Still & Video Workflow: Captures 33MP JPEG or HEIF stills in S-Log3 or S-Gamut3, supports up to 16 user-imported LUTs, and allows photo capture directly from shot marks during video recording or playback.
- Professional Monitoring & Connectivity: Features a 3.68m-dot 0.7x OLED EVF with 90° tilt, a 3-inch 1.03m-dot fold-out touchscreen, CFexpress Type A and SD card slots, and 2.4/5 GHz Wi-Fi for live 4K streaming.
