Sony Cinema Line: from FX3 & FX30 to FX6
7/27/2026
Sony’s Cinema Line brings features of expensive cine cameras into compact, affordable bodies — great for solo shooters and light enough for gimbals and drones.
The FX30 (Super35/APS-C) is the budget option, ideal for industrial work and social content. The full-frame FX3 excels in low light with softer, cinematic color. The FX6 steps up with built-in variable ND, XLR audio and a more professional rig.
All share S-Log3 and S-Cinetone profiles, and Sony’s strong autofocus and in-body stabilization are lifesavers for solo shooting. Their files are also light and edit-friendly, speeding delivery.
Pick by project — the camera is a tool; lighting, lens and edit make the result.
