Finally Sony will announce the first E-mount camera of the year. And it’s going to be the new “Sony FX2“. This is a sort of Sony FX3 with integrated EVF (or if you prefer a Sony A7cII in FX style). The camera will be announced on May 28 and we should get one more camera after that announcement between June and August.

Sony FX2 specs:

• 33MP sensor of the Sony A7IV and Sony A7cII
• AI chip
• integrated tilting EVF (resolution unclear yet).
• The EVF is nothing like the LUMIX GX9. It’s big! Like the GFX100 one.
• mechanical shutter
• AI AF
• 4k60 super 35
• 32 bit float audio
• Body is thicker than the FX3
• cooled FX body (active ventilation)
• same ports and storage of the FX3
• Price around $3500
• Announcement May 28

The camera is aimed especially at film students and content creators that need a Cine E-mount camera that can do it all. Unlike the FX3 you get a nice EVF and you get 32bit float audio support to be sure to never screw up your recordings.

Important: the Sony FX2 does NOT replace the Sony FX3! And I don’t know if this FX2 makes it even less likely to see a new A7sIV in the near future.

What are your thought about this camera?

By end of May Sony will announce a new Full Frame E-mount camera.. A new source told me that this new Sony camera will have a tilting EVF that works like on this Lumix camera. I’m still waiting for confirmation from trusted sources about this. But it would definitely be cool if it turns out to be true!

Tomorrow Sony will release the new “Sony FX3a”. But to call it new is an exaggeration. Basically the LCD display is no more in production and Sony had to release this new version with a new display and charger. So this is not a real updated FX3 and a new Sony FX3II is still on track to be released within a year.

Don’t be disappointed yet, I told you a very new kind of Sony camera will be announced in late May!

I have unconfirmed rumors from a sources about a DOUBLE Sony camera announcement:

1. On May 7 Sony could announce a small ‘update‘ of this camera. With new LCD screen, new charging port and other minor updates. Bad news: Increased price tag of $4500?
2. The exciting news: In late May there would be a completely new kind of camera that has one aspect of this Alpha series. More about that soon on SAR!

I am working right now with sources and hopefully within hours I can tell you more about both cameras!

I got a 100% reliable confirmation that within a month Sony will have another mayor E-mount announcement. One could be related to the FX camera series but I have been told there is “one more thing” for all of us ;)

Stay tuned!

Last week, Sony registered a new camera code in China. The document indicates that it will be manufactured in Shanghai, where Sony usually produces most of its cine cameras. I’m not 100% sure which camera it is yet, but there are two rumors circulating on the internet:

1. New Sony FX8: A direct successor of the FX6/FX9 cameras
2. New Sony FX compact camera: Not a FX3II but something close to it.
