The new Sony FX2 has just been announced as the latest in Sony’s lineup of incredibly popular compact cine cameras – aiming to bridge the gap for hybrid shooters who need a very capable video-first camera, but that also shoots high-resolution stills.
The FX2 is built around a very similar body to the Sony FX30 and FX3, with the FX2 body just being that little bit deeper. The new camera will be instantly familiar to current FX shooters with the same keys and control positions as previous models, although the FX2 will gain UI elements from Sony’s Venice cameras, including the ‘BIG6’ home screen design, which puts six of the most frequently adjusted settings front and centre on the screen for easy access.
