The Essentials:
Sony FX5 Full-Frame E-Mount Cinema Camera with XLR-H2 Handle
The Sony FX5 with XLR-H2 Handle is a professional full-frame cinema camera built for filmmakers who demand exceptional image quality, advanced audio recording and flexible production workflows. Combining Sony's latest imaging technology with the included XLR-H2 Handle Unit, the FX5 is ready for documentaries, commercials, broadcast, corporate video production and cinematic filmmaking straight out of the box.
Featuring a 5K full-frame stacked Exmor RS CMOS sensor and the powerful BIONZ XR2 processor with integrated AI processing, the FX5 delivers stunning detail, fast sensor readout, outstanding dynamic range and intelligent autofocus performance in a compact and lightweight body.
Professional Full-Frame Cinema Performance
The FX5 captures beautiful cinematic footage with smooth tonal gradation, natural colour reproduction and excellent low-light performance. Full-frame Open Gate recording provides greater flexibility for reframing and multiple aspect ratio delivery, while internal 16-bit X-OCN compressed RAW recording gives filmmakers maximum post-production freedom without requiring an external RAW recorder.
Whether you're producing feature films, documentaries or commercial content, the FX5 supports professional workflows with high frame rate recording, advanced codecs and exceptional image quality.
Advanced AI Autofocus
Sony's latest AI-powered autofocus system provides reliable subject recognition and tracking with up to 759 phase-detection autofocus points. This allows creators to confidently capture moving subjects while maintaining sharp focus throughout demanding productions.
Outstanding Low-Light Performance
Three Base ISO settings of ISO 800, ISO 4000 and ISO 12800 allow the camera to adapt to virtually any lighting environment. Dual Gain Shooting further improves dynamic range and reduces image noise, preserving highlight and shadow detail for professional colour grading.
Professional Audio Included
Unlike the body-only version, this kit includes the Sony XLR-H2 Handle Unit, providing professional audio recording straight out of the box. The handle features two XLR/TRS inputs, a 3.5mm stereo input and supports up to four channels of high-quality 96kHz/32-bit float audio recording, helping capture clean sound without the need for external audio recorders.
The removable handle integrates seamlessly with the FX5, making it ideal for interviews, documentaries, ENG, live events and professional video productions where broadcast-quality audio is essential.
Compact Design for Professional Productions
Despite its professional capabilities, the FX5 remains lightweight and compact, making it perfect for handheld shooting, gimbals, drones and travel productions. Dedicated controls, assignable buttons, a touch-panel monitor and extensive connectivity ensure efficient operation both on location and in the studio.
Expand Your Production Kit
For filmmakers requiring an eye-level monitoring solution, the FX5 is compatible with the optional Sony DVF-EL1 OLED Viewfinder, providing accurate focus and exposure monitoring even in bright outdoor environments.
