SONY PXW-FX9
The PXW-FX9 is Sony’s full-frame 6K sensor camera. The FX9 is an upgrade from Sony’s previous FS7 model, with faster Hybrid AF, dual base ISO, cinematic colour science and S-Cinetone (bringing the colour science from the Sony VENICE to the FX9).
The FX9 features a full frame 6K 35.7 by 18.8mm back-illuminated Exmor-R CMOS sensor. This sensor has 15+ stops of dynamic range and a resolution of 6008 x 3168. You can shoot QFHD full frame up to 30fps, 1080p full frame at up to 120 fps and QFHD S35 up to 60fps and 1080p S35 at up to 120fps!
The FX9 allows you to record up to four channels of audio with a range of different input options. The FX9 does not feature SLOG2 only SLOG3 with S-Gamut3 & S-Gamut3. This is because the SLOG2 gamma curve is designed for 8-bit whereas all of the codecs on this camera are 10-bit.
The PXW-FX9’s compact, lightweight body (that is also dust and moisture resistant) makes it ideal for situations that require mobility plus reliability.
Take a look at CVP’s promo, shot on the FX9. We also stock the SONY Venice.
