The FX30's advanced imaging system is on par with other options in Sony's Cinema Line-capturing detailed 10-bit UHD 4K imagery at up to 120 fps-giving it specs fitting a true cinema camera. The newly-developed 26MP APS-C Exmor R CMOS sensor and BIONZ XR processor are able to create high-quality 4K images with the Super 35mm (16:9) area. This system is capable of capturing 14+ stops of dynamic range and benefits from Dual Base ISO architecture to improve low-light performance. High-sensitivity recording at up to ISO 32000 and Dual Base ISO (800/2500). When using S-Log3, the FX30 can capture 14+ stops of dynamic range. Record in 10-bit 4:2:2 using advanced XAVC HS and XAVC S-I formats. Full pixel readout from the 6K sensor creates high-quality UHD 4K video at up to 60 fps. High-speed shooting is possible in 4K at up to 120 fps with a 1.6x crop and in Full HD up to 240 fps. The HDMI output supports 16-bit raw video to select, separately available recorders. S-Cinetone uses the same color science as Sony's advanced cinema cameras, including the VENICE line, with natural midtones, soft colors, and smooth highlight rolloff. Picture Profiles, such as S-Log3 and HLG, will capture images with expanded dynamic range and flexibility for editors. Creative Looks can be baked into the recorded footage to create a specific mood during recording and minimize the need for editing. Up to 16 user-created LUTs and three presets can be set for accurately monitoring footage or previewing a specific look during shooting. These can be applied to the camera's monitor or EVF as well as the HDMI output. Flexible ISO uses standard ISO settings for simple operation and the greatest flexibility. Cine EI ensures maximum dynamic range capture by recording at a manually selected base ISO setting and applying adjustments to metadata for monitoring and post-production. Cine EI quick will automatically switch between the two base ISO settings for easier operation and great quality. Real-time Eye AF and Real-time Tracking will track the eyes of humans and animals. AF Assist function will automatically switch to manual focus with a turn of the lens' focus ring. Focus Map makes it easier to visualize the region of focus in your scene Sony has equipped the FX30 with a 5-axis in-body image stabilization system that will help create smooth imagery even when working handheld. An Active Mode is available that blends optical systems with digital optimizations to capture ultra-smooth footage. The FX30 can also record gyro movement when the optical stabilizers are turned off which can be used in post to create a stable shot. SONYILMEFX30B
