Unlock the creative potential of the Sony PXW-FX9 XDCAM 6K Full-Frame camera, now available for rental at Camera Kitchen.
Ideal for a diverse range of productions, from documentaries and events to reality TV, education, and corporate projects, the Sony FX9 Camera presents a robust and adaptable 4K interchangeable lens camera system.
At its core, the FX9 is equipped with a full-frame, oversampled 6K Exmor R CMOS sensor, granting you the ability to capture 4K imagery enriched with cinematic depth of field. The camera's E-mount, crafted from stainless steel, seamlessly accommodates E-mount lenses, enhancing versatility.
The FX9 boasts an array of input and output features, including 12G-SDI and HDMI outputs for 4K, a 3G-SDI output for HD, and provisions for genlock and timecode when operating within a multicamera setup. Leveraging the Fast Hybrid AF autofocus system, precise focus is achieved, with the added capability of facial detection encompassing 561 points of detection. Elevating stability, the FX9's internal gyroscope facilitates advanced image stabilization, resulting in seamless shots that rival gimbal usage. With its 4-channel audio recording functionality, you can seamlessly integrate external microphones while concurrently capturing ambient sound using the internal mics.
Embracing a dynamic range of 15 stops, the camera records in 10-bit 4:2:2 format to dual XQD media card slots, accommodating simultaneous and relay recording, as well as various backup recording modes utilizing proxy files. The FX9 supports internal UHD (3840 x 2160) and HD (1920 x 1080) recording at selectable frame rates, ranging from 1 fps up to 60 fps across XAVC-I, XAVC-Long, and MPEG HD formats. A forthcoming firmware update will further enhance capabilities, enabling HD recording at up to 180 fps and the output of 16-bit raw 4K/2K footage at up to 120 fps. In tandem with its expansive dynamic range, the camera's enhanced color and light attributes encompass a dual base ISO of 800/4000, particularly beneficial in low-light scenarios or when utilizing slower lenses. A 7-stop electronic variable HD filter is also seamlessly incorporated, functioning in auto or manual mode, offering smooth adjustments from 1/4 to 1/128 density. The default S-Cinetone color look mirrors the captivating soft, vivid tone synonymous with Sony's VENICE camera.
The FX9 arrives complete with an integrated Multi-Interface (MI) shoe, accompanied by a BP-U35 battery, BC-U1A battery charger, AC adapter with dual power cords, body cap, viewfinder, eyepiece, remote control, and USB cable. For expanded possibilities, the FX9 is compatible with the separately available XDCA-FX9 extension unit, which introduces ENG shoulder-style support, networking features, and a dedicated slot for an optional wireless audio receiver.
