To be announced on April 20: PXW-FX6 with a new H265 codec?

Share

As you know next week on April 20 at 9:00am PST / 12:00 EST there will be a new Sony product announcement. I do not expect any A7 camera news. There should be some info about the new Cine E-mount lenses launched last year (see image on top) and maybe a new FX6 E-mount camcorder. Latest I got from a new source says this:

“PXW-FX6 to be announced next week with a new H265 codec.
No A7sIII or A7iv”

No idea yet it this info is correct. Drop me a message if yo can confirm it. Thanks!

The TIPA Award 2020 winners have been announced:

Best Full Frame Professional camera: Sony A7rIV
The Sony α7R IV has a 61.2MP CMOS full frame sensor that rivals medium format camera output in a more compact form factor, plus the camera’s 4 or 16 shot high-resolution pixel-shift modes can yield an amazing 240MP file size. Super-high res does not come at the cost of still of video image capabilities that include 10 fps burst rates and 4K video at full sensor width, plus incorporates Sony’s Real-Time AF Tracking system and dual slots for high-speed UHS-II cards.

Best APS-C Expert camera: Sony A6600
The Sony α6600 is ideal for photographers who desire a compact “walk-around” with exciting versatility and creative features for both still and video work. New and impressive technology from Sony includes Real-Time Tracking AF, which seamlessly transitions from subject tracking to face detection and even to eye detection. The camera can shoot at up to 11 frames per second and comes with a large “Z-type” battery that gives the best battery life in this class. Also perfect for content creators with 4K recording and IBIS system stabilization.

Best Expert compact camera: Sony RX100VII
The RX100 VII has definite appeal to those seeking a pocketable, integral-lens camera that incorporates a full range of imaging options that rival professional cameras. It supports optical image stabilization and an amazing 20fps continuous shooting burst rate. Numerous scene and drive modes are offered, plus 4K video, with motion video up to 1000 fps, makes it an excellent video companion as well. The Exmor R™ CMOS sensor and DRAM memory create a super-speed data highway.
