Versatile Addition to Sony Cinema Line

As part of Sony’s Cinema Line, the FX6 shares key imaging features with established cameras like the VENICE and FX9. Common core attributes include a full-frame sensor, filmlike color science, a compact, lightweight form, professional connector interfaces, and advanced autofocus choices.

Compared to the FX9, the FX6 differs in several specs; but many FX6 specs tick the same boxes and several improve upon the FX9:

• It matches the FX9’s video capture up to DCI 4K60
• Has the same S-Cinetone, S-Log3, and HLG gamma choices
• Outputs 16-bit raw like the FX9
• Sony E lens mount
• Offers the same 1/4 to 1/128 ND options
• Also provides 2-channel XLR audio inputs

FX6 differences from the FX9:

• 4K capture vs 6K
• Has a single 12G/6G/3G-SDI BNC port, trimming the FX9’s additional 3G-SDI port
• Incorporates a timecode port but lacks the FX9’s genlock connector

Improved FX6 specs include:

• An ISO range of 320 to 409,600 vs the FX9’s 320 to 102,400 range
• Top frame rates of 120p in 4K and up to 240p in HD vs the FX9’s top 1080p in HD
• Dual card slots compatible with both durable, highly efficient CFexpress Type A or widely available SDXC cards, compared to the FX9’s reliance on proprietary XQD cards and a single SD card option

• Update your Sony FX6 with v4.0 firmware to access new features that were designed with feedback from the pro cine community.
• Anamorphic de-squeeze is now available in both 1.3x and 2.0x ratios for viewing in the viewfinder and through the HDMI output.
• Cine EI Quick support enables you to select the same workflow as Cinema Line cameras like the FX3 and FX30, streamlining your multi-camera process.
• Clip naming now uses the same process as the CineAlta cameras, ensuring an easier multi-camera workflow.
• Autofocus is available when using frame rates of 7 fps or higher in S&Q (Slow & Quick) mode.

• Set the FX6’s integrated neutral density (ND) filter system to auto for correctly exposed shots, even in changing light conditions
• Smoothly adjust the ND filter density manually in increments from 1/4 to 1/128 as you shoot
• Both options will produce properly exposed images without affecting your chosen depth of field

For slow-motion and fast action looks, choose from full-frame rates ranging from:

• 1-60 fps in HD to DCI 4K resolutions
