Sony FX3 + FE 20-70mm F/4.0 G
Experiences like you've never had before. The Sony FX3 takes you into the world of cinema. This video camera is super compact, yet it has everything you look for as a cinematographer: 4K image quality, low-light performance, real-time Eye AF and touch tracking, and much more.
The Sony FX3 uses a 10.2 Megapixel Exmor R CMOS sensor, and together with the Bionz XR Processor this technology delivers the performance you're looking for. This sensor makes it possible to shoot in 4K at 120fps, with minimal rolling shutter. This means you won't get any black-outs. It also lets you deliver a beautiful result in difficult lighting conditions, with an ISO of up to 409,800 and a wide dynamic range of +15 stops.
Sony's Autofocus is renowned for its accurate Eye autofocus on humans and animals. With this camera, Sony has gone one step further: you can even work with touch tracking. This means you tap a person or object on your screen. The camera then automatically keeps your chosen subject sharp, even if it moves. The camera also uses five-axis Image stabilisation. You'll notice you never get shaky footage again. At least, it won't be the camera's fault.
The most talked-about and probably most widely used picture profiles are S-Log3 and S-Cinetone. These picture profiles let you add high contrast in post-production, with beautiful brightness and detail. Keep in mind that with S-Log3 you always have to edit your footage. S-Cinetone, on the other hand, is inspired by Venice colorimetry and delivers beautiful colours and natural skin tones. You can use it straight away without necessarily having to edit your footage. If you do want to edit, there is plenty of room to do so.
As you're used to from Sony, you can once again use Wifi and Bluetooth connectivity. This lets you transfer your footage directly to your mobile or stream it. You can also safely store your footage on the two CFexpress Type A or SD cards.
With a weight of 715 grams, you can safely say it not only feels great in the hand, but is also easy to add to your existing gear. The camera uses the E-mount, so you can use it with the Lenses you may already have bought for other cameras. It also has everything you need as a cinematographer: a 3.5mm XLR minijack input, 2x microphone input, a USB Type-C and micro USB port, and an HDMI output.
The Sony 20-70mm f/4.0 G is a high-quality full-frame Zoom lens, ideal for landscape photography, street photography, portraits and video, among other things. The Lens has a fixed Aperture of f/4 throughout the entire zoom range and offers stunning sharpness. The Sony 20-70mm has 16 elements in 13 groups, including 4 ED elements, two AD elements (advanced aspherical) and one aspherical element. Thanks to these elements, you take photos with an incredibly high Resolution from corner to corner. The circular 9-blade Aperture gives you beautiful background Bokeh with a constant Aperture of f/4, so you can get creative.
This Lens contains two XD (extreme dynamic) linear motors, so you focus even faster and more accurately. Whether you're shooting photos or video, you'll never miss the perfect moment again with this Zoom lens! Sun or shade, light or dark, thanks to the constant Aperture you maintain beautiful brightness, even when you change your Focal length. The Lens also has a fluorine coating on the front element, which repels water, oil and other dirt. This makes it easy to wipe away fingerprints or dust. Of course, this Lens also has a dust- and moisture-resistant design, so you don't have to worry about your Lens when shooting in bad conditions. This Lens is also well suited to video thanks to its focus breathing compensation. You can also make quick focus adjustments while zooming.
