First specs and images of the new Sony FX3 competition:

Share

In just a few days, the Sony FX3 will face strong new rivals from Canon, Nikon, and possibly even Panasonic (but not DJI). Here are the latest leaked images and specs.

Canon C50 specs:

  • 32MP FF sensor
  • Open Gate
  • no IBIS
  • Announcement on Sept 9

Nikon Zr specs:

  • 24MP partially stacked sensor
  • 6k all intra
  • IBIS
  • one SD and on micro SD card slot
  • Announcement on Sept 10
  • (no leaked images yet)

Last week, a German YouTuber shared images of an unreleased compact cine camera fitted with a Viltrox PL-to-L mount adapter. After realizing the mistake, he re-uploaded the video with a larger blurred area to hide the details. Still, two key claims remain:

  • The camera will be announced this week.
  • He claims it’s neither a Canon nor the Lumix S1HII.

So this could be a new L-mount Cine camera likely from Panasonic and NOT from DJI?
