Sony FX3 Full-Frame Cinema Camera
$165/day$495 / week (3× day)
Sony's compact full-frame cinema body — a 12.1MP back-illuminated sensor, 4K up to 120fps, 10-bit 4:2:2 S-Log3 and dual base ISO 800/12,800, with active cooling, E-mount and a detachable dual-XLR top handle.
When it’s the right call
Full-frame cinema in the smallest package — gimbal days, tight interiors, travel, or an A-cam that fits where bigger bodies won’t. If most of your day is moving shots, this is the body that keeps your arms alive.
Where to set it up
The included XLR top handle turns it into a proper video camera; strip it bare for the RS2 gimbal and it balances in minutes.
Get the most out of it
- 10-bit S-Log3 with a LUT preview — grades like its bigger siblings
- ISO 12,800 second base means streetlight-only night scenes work
- No EVF: budget a monitor for daylight exteriors, or shoot from the tilt screen
