Sony Cinema Line FX30 Super 35 Camera (Body Only) - Compact cage-free design with 4K up to 120p

20.1 MP1 Exmor R APS-C (Super 35mm format) image sensor with wide dynamic range

Sony’s acclaimed image sensor technology in a new back-illuminated 20.1* megapixels APS-C Exmor R CMOS sensor (Super 35 format) achieves high sensitivity, low noise, and wide dynamic latitude. 6K oversampling compresses a vast amount of information into 4K (QFHD: 3840 x 2160) output, delivering 4K movies with overwhelming resolution. Capture the scene in cinematic 4K resolution with the expressive depth of field, stunning bokeh, and cinematic freedom of an APS-C size sensor. The image sensor maximizes light collection efficiency so that clear, usable images can be captured in dim light. Standard ISO sensitivity is 100 to 32000, and latitude is an impressively wide 14+ stops. (*Effective for Movies. 26 MP for Stills)

S-Cinetone for a cinematic look straight out of the camera without grading

The FX30 includes S-Cinetone, the same color science that produces the highly regarded FX9 and FX6 color and skin tones. Based on technology acquired through development of digital cinema cameras such as Sony’s VENICE 2, S-Cinetone delivers natural mid-tones that are essential to healthy-looking skin color, plus soft colors and gorgeous highlights. Because S-Cinetone produces all this directly within the camera, it's easy to achieve a beautiful cinematic look without the necessity of post-production grading.

Flexible ISO, Cine EI Quick and Cine EI Log shooting modes for optimized image quality

Three modes are provided for recording with the S-Log3 gamma curve (“Log Shooting Setting” in the menu) when post processing will be used to grade and finish the footage. Cine EI, inherited from Sony’s high-end Cinema Line models, offers wide latitude and the highest possible image quality. Cine EI Quick automatically switches the camera’s base ISO according to the selected Exposure Index (EI). And Flexible ISO provides the greatest flexibility for exposure settings.

User LUTs can be applied to the LCD display and HDMI output and embedded in clips

When recording with the S-Log3 gamma curve, the low-contrast image displayed on the monitor can make it difficult to judge how the final image will look. The FX30 allows custom LUTs to be applied to the LCD monitor and HDMI output, providing a more accurate preview of the final image. LUTs can also be embedded in clips to facilitate post-production processing4. The FX30 even includes a new s709 preset LUT that can provide a more cinematic look while monitoring. In addition to the preset LUTs, up to 16 user LUTs (.cube format)5 can be imported into the camera via memory card.

Dual Base ISO and a 14+ stop3 range for wide latitude and low-noise images

The Dual Base ISO provides two sensitivity settings - one at ISO 800 and one at ISO 2500. This allows you to select an appropriate noise floor, for clean images, as well as maximize the FX30’s dynamic range when shooting in both bright or low-light conditions. Furthermore, a wide 14+ stop latitude minimizes the risk of blown highlights or blocked shadows over a wide range of lighting conditions, making it easier to shoot top-quality images in just about any shooting situation.

Log recording for smooth cinematic image quality when color grading

For full-scale productions, the S-Log3 gamma curve provided in the FX30 has been designed for smooth gradations, and to make it easier to achieve cinematic image quality when color grading in post-production. Both S-Log3 and S-Gamut3.Cine offers high-quality color reproduction over a wide latitude, and special care has been taken to adjust the camera's output to ensure that the highest image quality can be easily achieved during post-processing.

Sony CFexpress Type A 160GB Memory Card

The CEA-G160T (160GB) uses the latest flash memory control technology to achieve read speeds as high as 800MB/s and write speeds as high as 700MB/s, greatly reducing buffer clearing times for efficient, stress-free shooting. The CFexpress Type A cards are ideally suited for high-speed continuous shooting of more than 1,000 uncompressed RAW still images, as well as 4K 120p movie recording at high bit rates with the Slow & Quick Motion function when paired with cameras like the Alpha 7S III. Compliance with the VPG400 video performance guarantee profile specification ensures stable video recording at 400 MB/s—creating a smooth workflow for professional creators.

Compact Design to Fit Compact Cameras

Smaller than both CFexpress Type B and SD media cards, yet much faster than SD cards, the CFexpress is perfectly suited for compact cameras like Sony’s mirrorless Alpha series. The Alpha 7S III features two card slots, both compatible with SD and the new CFexpress Type A media, while maintaining class-leading camera size and weight.

Effective Heat Dissipation to Support High Bit-Rate Data Transfers

The new CFexpress Type A memory cards are equipped with a heatsink to transfer heat generated by the card to the exterior when transmitting large amounts of data at high speed, using Sony's original alloy with excellent thermal conductivity. This enables users to record for long periods of time, even when recording 4K 120p video internally.

TOUGH and Durable

Keeping up with Sony’s TOUGH specifications, the new CFexpress Type A memory cards feature bending and impact resistance to protect precious data, even when frequently changing cards in the harshest environments. Offering outstanding durability, they are up to five times more resistant to drop impact and up to ten times more resistant to bending, compared to CFexpress Type A requirement standards. Thanks to a specialized internal structure, they achieve an IPX7 water ingress protection rating and an IP5X dust ingress protection rating (IP57) for enhanced durability. It is also resistant to humidity, X-rays, electrostatic charges, ultraviolet radiation

Supported by Memory Card File Rescue Data Recovery Software

Accidents happen. Sony’s Memory Card File Rescue data recovery software3 allows users to recover accidentally deleted RAW images and 4K video from memory cards. In addition, Sony’s Media Scan Utility media diagnostic software will be updated to support CFexpress Type A cards allowing users to diagnose and receive a warning before the number of read/write cycles approaches the card’s limit.

Supported by Media Scan Utility Software

Sony’s Media Scan Utility, is a software application for desktop computers that diagnoses the state of the flash memory in memory cards4. When installed on a desktop computer, supported memory cards will automatically be diagnosed when mounted, and a warning will be displayed when the number of read/write cycles approaches the card’s limit, giving you the peace-of-mind that the card will perform as needed for your next project. The application will be updated to support CFexpress Type A cards and made available as a free download.  MRWG2 card reader is required for CFexpress Type A card diagnosis.

Sony Z-Series NP-FZ100 7.2V 2,280mAh Rechargeable Battery Pack

The innovative all-new Sony battery model NP-FZ100 has 2.2x the capacity of previous Sony full-frame models, allowing for much longer shooting performance. It also supports InfoLITHIUM technology, making it possible to view the remaining battery power as both a percentage display and five step icon on the camera’s LCD screen. More power means longer shooting times so that you can get the best out of your high-performance camera.
