Product Details

Full-frame filmmaking in a compact body

The Sony FX3A brings full-frame Cinema Line recording into a body that works for small crews, handheld setups and compact rigs. It suits filmmakers who want flexible exposure, professional audio connections and a camera designed around video production.

Shape the image for your workflow

S-Cinetone provides a convenient starting look, while S-Log3 and Cine EI support productions that plan to grade the image. In supported Cine EI modes, base ISO options of 800 and 12800 give two exposure starting points for different lighting conditions. LUT monitoring helps preview the intended look while retaining the chosen recording workflow.

Capture motion with a considered setup

Internal 4K recording reaches up to 119.88p/100p in supported modes, and Full HD S&Q adds higher capture-rate options. Internal 10-bit 4:2:2 recording is available in compatible modes. Resolution, crop, frame rate and media requirements depend on the selected format. RAW video output is available over HDMI to a compatible external recorder rather than as internal RAW recording.

Keep the subject and camera movement under control

Hybrid autofocus combines phase and contrast detection, with eye detection available for supported subjects. Five-axis in-body stabilization helps reduce camera shake, and Active video correction offers an additional option with a change in framing. The fully articulating touchscreen helps when working away from eye level; there is no built-in viewfinder.

Bring sound into the production

The supplied XLR handle adds two XLR/TRS inputs and a stereo mini-jack input for compatible microphones and audio sources. Supported accessories and settings enable expanded audio recording options. The camera body also provides microphone and headphone sockets for a simpler sound setup.

Prepare for a longer shoot

Two CFexpress Type A/SD-compatible slots, full-size HDMI, USB-C power support and a built-in cooling fan provide useful production options. Available recording time still depends on heat, fan settings, storage, power and recording format. The supplied BC-ZD1 charger helps prepare NP-FZ100 batteries between sessions; use a suitable compatible power supply.
