New look for unbounded creativity

Stunning new Super 35 look

FS5 II’s all-new default look is specifically tuned to meet the requirements of today’s content creators with rich mid-range colours, alluring facial tones and a softer tonal look tuned with the same expertise as Sony’s worldleading VENICE digital cinematography camera. Straight out of the camera your content will look fresh and vivid, with subjects that really stand out, while still retaining plenty of latitude for post production refinement due to the high performance Super 35 Exmor™ sensor.

Creative Picture Profiles

FS5 II features an all-new default look with beautiful highlights and subtle, well rendered facial tones for more emotive visuals where your subjects naturally stand out. There’s also an additional nine Picture Profiles, including ones customised for S-Log2, S-Log3 and a profile specifically tuned to provide vibrant, high contrast visuals for creators who desire a DSLR-stlye look.

Clear Image Zoom

Once you’ve zoomed in at maximum optical magnification, Pixel Super Resolution technology can enlarge the image by additional 200% in Full HD. It is also compatible with fixed focal length lenses, so you can zoom into a scene while using a prime lens.

Lightweight, modular and robust

Despite its amazingly light 0.8kg body, FS5 II is more than tough enough for the rigours of real-world shooting. A magnesium chassis ensures high rigidity with ¼-inch screw holes on handle, top and bottom of the body to support mounting on a drone, gimbal or in an underwater housing. A detachable Smart Grip puts all of the FS5 II’s key functions are at your fingertips and is easily adjusted with the press of a single button.
