Expanding on the original FS7, the refurbished Sony PXW-FS7M2 XDCAM Super 35 Camera System is a flexible 4K camera system. Designed as a camera that is at home on productions as diverse as "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. The camera incorporates a stronger locking E-Mount that is fully compatible with E-Mount lenses and supports all electronic connections. The locking mount reduces lens play and allows you to use most 35mm lenses including PL, EF, Leica, and Nikon via optional adapters. This stronger E-Mount is ideal for using heavier, long cine-zooms without the need for additional lens support.
Just behind the lens mount sits an electronic variable ND system that provides a clear filter and three 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 onboard 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 4K, and it 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.
