The FX5 is the first camera in the FX series to support internal X-OCN recording, bringing Sony's professional RAW workflow from its flagship Cinema Line into a compact cinema camera.
Capture up to 5K Open Gate in a 3:2 aspect ratio for maximum flexibility when cropping for multiple delivery formats or visual effects work. Three internal X-OCN recording options allow filmmakers to balance image quality and file size according to production requirements.
Powered by the latest BIONZ XR2 processor and dedicated AI processing unit, the FX5 delivers Sony's most advanced autofocus system in an FX camera.
AI subject recognition accurately tracks people, animals and birds, while improved eye detection and low-light autofocus help maintain reliable focus even in challenging shooting conditions.
AI-assisted Auto White Balance further improves colour consistency when lighting conditions change during production.
The FX5 includes a comprehensive suite of professional monitoring tools directly within the camera, reducing the need for external accessories.
The redesigned BIG 6 cinema interface provides quick access to essential settings through an intuitive touchscreen layout.
Designed to integrate seamlessly into professional production environments, the FX5 features dual CFexpress Type A/SD card slots, dual USB-C ports, full-size HDMI, Ethernet, microphone and headphone connections.
Timecode support enables accurate synchronisation for multi-camera productions, while compatibility with Sony's professional accessories allows the camera to adapt to a wide range of filmmaking workflows.
Enhanced in-body image stabilisation helps reduce camera shake during handheld shooting, while Dynamic Active Mode provides additional electronic stabilisation for smoother footage when filming on the move.
The compact body also makes the FX5 ideal for gimbal work, documentary filmmaking and travel productions where mobility is essential.
This version includes Sony's XLR Handle Unit, providing two professional XLR inputs, physical audio controls and support for 32-bit float audio recording. With an exceptionally wide dynamic range, 32-bit float recording helps prevent clipping while simplifying audio capture on location.
