Product story

Details worth knowing

The Sony Cinema Line FX30 (ILME-FX30 / ILME-FX30B) is a compact Super 35 digital cinema camera that brings Sony's professional Cinema Line color science, Dual Base ISO (800 / 2500), 6K-oversampled 4K 60p, 4K 120p 10-bit 4:2:2 internal recording, and an active-cooled cage-free magnesium alloy body to E-mount filmmakers.

6K-oversampled Super 35 BSI Exmor R sensor and Dual Base ISO

The FX30 features a newly developed back-illuminated APS-C / Super 35 Exmor R CMOS sensor (20.1MP effective in 16:9 video; 26.0MP in 3:2 stills) paired with the BIONZ XR processor. Using 6K oversampling with full pixel readout and no pixel binning, it records detailed 4K DCI/UHD up to 60p and high-frame-rate 4K 120p (with a 1.6x crop) in 10-bit 4:2:2 XAVC S-I (All-Intra), XAVC HS, and XAVC S. In S-Log3, Dual Base ISO (800 and 2500) delivers 14+ stops of dynamic range with equal noise floors at both base sensitivities.

Cine EI, S-Cinetone, User 3D LUTs, and 16-bit RAW HDMI output

Engineered to cut seamlessly alongside Sony FX3, FX6, and FX9 cinema cameras, the FX30 includes S-Cinetone for broadcast-ready skin tones and three S-Log3 recording modes: Flexible ISO, Cine EI, and Cine EI Quick. Filmmakers can import up to 16 custom User 3D LUTs (.cube) to preview graded footage on the 3.0-inch 2.36M-dot vari-angle touchscreen LCD or bake LUTs directly into clips, and output 16-bit linear RAW video over the full-size HDMI Type-A port to compatible external recorders.

Active cooling fan, cage-free 1/4"-20 threads, and dual CFexpress slots

The flat-topped magnesium alloy chassis (~646g with NP-FZ100 battery and memory card) integrates five 1/4"-20 UNC threaded mounting holes so accessories attach directly without an external cage, while an internal cooling fan ensures uninterrupted 4K 60p recording. Additional production features include 5-axis optical IBIS with Active Mode, Focus Breathing Compensation, front/top/rear tally lamps, a body zoom rocker, timecode input via Multi/Micro USB adapter, and dual hybrid card slots supporting both CFexpress Type A and UHS-II SDXC media.

Bangladesh buying guide and XLR handle confirmation

Sony distributes the FX30 in two official packages: ILME-FX30 (with the XLR-H1 Top Handle Unit featuring dual XLR/TRS audio inputs) and ILME-FX30B (Body Only). Confirm whether the XLR handle unit is included and verify local warranty coverage before ordering from any seller in the BiponiBD catalog.

Helpful answers

Frequently asked questions

Product-specific answers maintained with the catalog information.

What is the difference between Sony ILME-FX30 and ILME-FX30B?

Both models share the exact same FX30 Super 35 camera body. The ILME-FX30 package includes the detachable XLR-H1 Top Handle Unit (which adds two full-size XLR/TRS combo audio inputs and a 3.5mm mic input via the Digital MI Shoe), whereas the ILME-FX30B is the camera body only without the XLR handle. Confirm which package the seller is supplying before ordering.

Does the Sony FX30 overheat during long 4K 60p interviews or events?

No. Unlike compact hybrid stills cameras, the FX30 features an internal cooling fan and dedicated ventilation ducts isolated from the electronics, enabling continuous 4K 60p recording limited only by battery power and media capacity.

Can the Sony Cinema Line FX30 take still photographs?

Yes, the FX30 can capture 26.0-megapixel RAW and JPEG/HEIF still photos using its electronic shutter. However, it does not have a mechanical shutter, burst shooting mode, or an electronic viewfinder, as it is engineered primarily as a cinema camera.

Does the Sony FX30 support Shutter Angle and User LUTs?

Yes. Firmware and native Cinema Line menus support Shutter Angle (such as 180-degree shutter), Cine EI / Cine EI Quick log modes, and importing up to 16 custom .cube 3D LUTs for on-monitor previewing or direct PP LUT recording.
