Sony FX30 Cinema Line Super 35 Mirrorless Camera (With XLR Top Handle)
The Sony FX30 Cinema Line Camera with XLR Top Handle Unit delivers an authentic cinematic production experience in an ultra-compact, production-ready bundle. Unlike the standalone body configuration, this premium package includes the detachable Sony XLR top handle, instantly expanding your audio capabilities with dual professional XLR/TRS inputs and providing a solid physical grip for low-angle cinematography. Combining a high-performance 26MP back-illuminated Super 35mm sensor, dual-base ISO architecture, and professional log capturing modes, this system serves as the definitive run-and-gun tool for indie filmmakers, corporate videographers, and documentary crews requiring top-tier audio and video out of the box.
Core Specifications and Key Features
Premium XLR Top Handle and Professional Audio Control
The defining characteristic of this package is the included removable XLR handle unit .
- Audio Connectivity:
Features two full-sized 3-pin XLR/TRS combo inputs alongside a standard 3.5mm stereo mini-jack, allowing direct connection to high-end shotgun microphones, wireless receivers, and mixing boards.
- Hardware Interface: Equipped with dedicated physical switches, dials, and low-cut filters to adjust audio levels manually on the fly without accessing internal digital menus.
- Secure Ergonomics: Attaches firmly to the camera body via the Multi-Interface (MI) Shoe and dual mechanical locking screws, providing a robust top grip for smooth handheld operating and low-angle tracking shots.
26.1MP Back-Illuminated Super 35 / APS-C CMOS Sensor
At the heart of the system is a 26.1-megapixel back-illuminated Exmor R CMOS sensor scaled to the Hollywood-standard Super 35mm format. Delivering a wide 14+ stops of dynamic range, this sensor provides superior highlight roll-off and exceptional shadow clarity. The Super 35 frame size delivers a distinctive cinematic aesthetic with a rich, shallow depth of field and minimizes rolling shutter distortion during rapid movement.
Dual Base ISO and BIONZ XR Processing Engine
Powered by Sony’s flagship BIONZ XR image processing engine , the FX30 features a professional dual-base ISO layout to maintain clean imagery in unpredictable lighting.
- Dual Base ISO 800 / 2500: Allows operators to cleanly shift between an optimized base for bright daylight environments and an ultra-sensitive low-light setting without introducing heavy digital noise.
- Extended Sensitivity: Reaches up to a maximum ISO of 32000, ensuring clean, low-noise recordings in dimly lit spaces.
Cinema-Grade 4K Imaging and Log Workflows
- 6K Oversampled 4K Video: Captures high-fidelity 4K video by oversampling from the entire 6K sensor area, producing incredibly detailed UHD 4K files up to 60p with zero pixel binning.
- 4K 120p High Frame Rate: Supports high-speed recording up to 4K at 120 frames per second (with a minor 1.6x crop) to deliver fluid, ultra-smooth cinematic slow-motion sequences.
- Cine Looks & LUTs: Built-in with S-Cinetone for natural, soft skin tones straight out of the camera. It fully supports S-Log3 log curves and allows users to import custom 3D LUTs to preview exact color-graded styles on screen or bake them directly into the internal files.
Real-Time Tracking AF & Advanced Body Image Stabilization
- Bulletproof Tracking: Features 495 focal-plane phase-detection points covering approximately 93% of the image frame, providing rapid, highly accurate Real-Time Eye AF for humans, animals, and birds.
- Focus Breathing Compensation: Digitally counteracts minor framing shifts when pulling focus when paired with compatible Sony E-mount lenses.
- 5-Axis Stabilization: Built-in In-Body Image Stabilization (IBIS) combines with digital Active Mode stabilization to smooth out heavy hand tremors during handheld operation.
