- Rumors suggest new FX2 Cinema Line Camera Incoming with 33MP full-frame sensor
- Large, tilting EVF and 32-bit float sound recording toted as features
- $ 3,500 Price Tag and May 28 Launch Date Suggested
Last week we reported a rumor that claimed Sony would launch a new camera on May 28. We may now know what the camera is: a premium, full frame video-centered mirror-free model called Sony FX2 and it may come with advanced cinema-located features such as 32-bit Float Audio recording.
Of course, all this comes with the permission of another unconfirmed rumor, albeit from the relatively reliable cannon rumors news site. Still take everything below as speculation rather than fact; Until we hear the official word from Sony, nothing is determined.
With that said, Canon Rumors’ Story is filled with interesting information. First, it is stated that FX2 will have a large tilting electronic viewfinder (EVF), which binds with last week’s demands from Sony Alpha Rumors. It also says the camera will use the same 33MP BSI sensor in full frame, which is found on Sony’s existing A7 IV and A7C II models.
Fluently some interesting new feature ideas …
Other potential Sony FX2 Specifications and features include a dedicated AI-chip, AI-Assisted Auto Focus, a mechanical shutter (by no means a given in a video located camera these days), an active cooling system to reduce overheating problem state.
The story also says that FX2 will include the same physical connectivity options and storage options as the current Sony FX3 model (which means it will have XLR sound inputs as well as two CFExpress Type A/ SD cards).
As far as the price is concerned, Canon rumors state that FX2 will cost $ 3,500 (approximately £ 2,670 or AU $ 5,430 if they are directly converted), which puts this camera a lot on the premium territory in Sony FX-Line-Up, which also includes FX3, FX30 and FX6.
However, there is some confusion among Sony fans surrounding the 33MP sensor, which has been touted for FX2. It is a high -resolution sensor that is typically connected to Sony’s hybrid cameras and not its video -focused eg models such as FX3, which typically has less pixels for better performance with low light and handling rolling shutter distortion.
This sensor feels like a strange choice for Sony’s eg cinema line, but again the mentioned features are based solely on rumors and can be inaccurate. Keep an eye on more news about Sony’s upcoming camera balance, as several sources have said, will happen on May 28, 2025.
