About Sony alpha (alphauniverse.com)
Sony alpha is a mirrorless camera system from Sony. Cameras such as the A7S III, FX1, A1, A7C, A9II, A7RIV and the A7III are from this line. These cameras are often used by compact crews, professional photographers and Run and gun shooters.
The Sony FX3
Besides Sony’s Alpha line, there is also its cinema camera line: FX. After the Sony FX9 and FX6 were available on the market for a while, Sony announced its smallest cinema camera on the 23rd of February: the Sony FX3.
The camera shares a lot with the A7SIII. Both cameras record the same frame rates, share the same sensor and both allow for external raw recording. Despite their similarities, there are a few unique features that the FX3 has that make it more appealing for video.
The first reason being the lack of an electronic viewfinder. This may sound as a disappointment to those who enjoy using a viewfinder, but the lack of a viewfinder has a reason. The FX3 comes with a top handle with built-in XLR inputs. The handle makes the FX3 a real run and gun camera for video shooters and allows for professional audio equipment to be used with the camera.
On the frontside of the camera there is a tally lamp, which allows for both the camera operator and talent to visually see that the camera is rolling. Moreover, on top of the camera there is a zoom lever. With this lever and compatible Sony cinema lenses and Sony cameras that have Electronic Clear Image Zoom function, can electronically zoom in and out.
Finally, the FX3 has 5 ¼’’-20 mounting points for accessories. This makes the camera perfect for rigging and changing the ergonomics of the camera depending on the needs of the situation.
