Sony FX6 Full-Frame Cinema Camera (Body Only)

You don’t get something for nothing in this world, so the Sony FX6 is not just a cheaper FX9 with all the same spec. For professional cinematographers, the more expensive FX9 has the appeal of a 6K sensor that’s oversampled to get the recording down to 4K.

  Most affordable full-frame cinema camera ever, Advanced Alpha hybrid AF, 10-bit 4:2:2 4K/120p and 240fps HD!

  No internal Raw recording or EVF, No built-in image stabilisation, CFexpress Type A cards expensive and uncommon

Sony has made a solid, feature-rich cinema camera in the FX6. The variable ND is a great feature and it can practically see in the dark. We hope that the move to a full-frame cinema camera spreads to other brands and Sony has given them a high bar to reach for.

Excellent image quality and ease of use. Terrible screen support, I ended up going the Zacuto route with excellent results and have stoped using my FS7 except for American jobs where I need to shoot NTSC which unfortunately the FX6 doesn't really do.

I bought the FX6 about 6 months ago and it is a great camera. I guess the frustration is the amount of extortionately expensive extra bits you need to run it in a shoulder rig with V lock batteries, lens etc but once I got that sorted and added a Sony FE4 28-135 it created a great gun and run...

A joy to operate.No XLR on body, the weak monitor hinge and lack of the A7siii's autofocus being the only minor complains about an otherwise awesome camera.

Amazing professional quality from this simple to use camera.

I have been using my FX6 for almost a year now and Its almost perfect. so easy to use, Incredible face detection AF and that built in ND makes this a brilliant camera. I just wish there was an Audio Jack on the body, Maybe Sony can make an adapter from the handle connector?

Overall is very good product. all i say is its worry free camera. you will have peace in mind when you in doing your job.

A step up from my FS7 with much better colour and increased image quality

The FX6 was my first Cine camera having been shooting on the alpha series for 5 years.Understandably using it the first time was a little daunting. So many features I hadn't yet had experience with and also hearing reviews of the cluttered menu.

I love shooting proxies simultaneously and this cameras audio channels don't connect in premiere making the proxies useless because premiere wont even let you attach them. This adds many hours to my editing work flow which could be changed with an update.

It could have been the perfect Cam - nobody ever mentioned it - the af and eye af works great but where is the object tracking feature - I love this feature so much in my a7iii and couldnt find it on the FX6 - I wrote the support and they told me it is implemented - didn't find it - it's such a game...
