Sony FX3

The Sony FX3 is a compact full-frame cinema camera built around a 12.1MP Exmor R sensor optimized for low-light sensitivity and dynamic range rather than sheer resolution. It records UHD 4K up to 120 fps and 1080p up to 240 fps, with internal 10-bit 4:2:2 recording and 16-bit raw output over HDMI for maximum flexibility in post.

Its boxy, cage-free form factor is built specifically for rigging, with threaded mounting points on multiple sides and a removable top handle, making it easy to configure for handheld, gimbal, or tripod work without an add-on cage. Active cooling lets it run demanding frame rates for extended periods without overheating, making it a strong choice for run-and-gun and narrative shoots alike.
