Our Sony PXW-FS7M2 XDCAM Super 35 Camera System is a flexible 4K camera system. Paired with the Sony XDCA-FS7 Extension Unit, take advantage of additional I/O and RAW data output for recording 12-bit 4K/2K RAW footage to compatible external recorders. The extension unit also features built-in Apple ProRes encoding for recording 1080p ProRes 422 video to an XQD card in the camera. Additionally, the extension unit adds Timecode and Genlock connectors for multi-camera operation, as well as a V-Mount battery connector, making this camera package perfect for “Cinéma Vérité”-style documentaries, reality TV, commercial, and corporate applications.

It features a Super 35mm sized sensor that allows you to capture images with cinematic depth of field. Our ready-to-shoot package includes a Metabones EF mount adapter as well.

Just behind the lens mount sits an electronic variable ND system that provides a clear filter and 3 user definable presets. The variable ND can be adjusted to provide between 2 and 7 stops of ND. The camera can capture footage to optional on-board XQD media cards in either DCI 4K (4096 x 2160) or UHD 4K (3840 x 2160) at up to 59.94 fps or HD at up to 180 fps.

The camera records in your choice of XAVC-I, XAVC-L, or MPEG-2. However, MPEG-2 recording does not support the high data rates the camera can generate when shooting in UHD, and is limited to recording HD video only. The camera incorporates Dual XQD media card slots that support simultaneous or relay recording. An ergonomically designed handgrip provides control of many of the camera’s functions and features an adjustable length support arm.

The 4K Super 35 EXMOR sensor features 14 Stops of latitude and a wide color gamut. It offers a choice of XAVC or MPEG-2 codecs. The XAVC codec can be used for 4K and HD recording, while MPEG-2 is limited to HD recording. XAVC comes in two flavors, XAVC INTRA, and XAVC Long, allowing you to encode from HD to UHD using Intra-Frame or Long GOP compression with 10-bit 4:2:2 for HD and the choice of 10-bit 4:2:2 or 8-bit 4:2:0 for UHD. XAVC intra compression is very efficient, recording at modest bit rates and XAVC Long also substantially extends the recording time while attaining very high quality and low noise.
