Sony's New FX5 Camera Packs Professional Filmmaking Tools Under $5,000

Sony's FX5, arriving August 2026 at $4,899.99, brings high-end cinema camera features to a more affordable price. Its sensor captures the full image area and records rich, uncompressed video internally — capabilities once reserved for costlier models. Extra light sensitivity and wide detail range round out the package. Additional shooting modes are expected via a free software update by August 2027.
