NEX-FS100E- Offering an entry into creative Super 35mm shooting.
Designed with feedback from leading camera operators the new NEX-FS100E with its interchangeable lens and Super 35mm sensor, delivers fantastic cinematic images and creative flexibility to an increasing range of applications.
NEX-5K- Delivering DSLR style creativity in a light, compact camera.
The NEX-5 is the interchangeable lens camera that delivers the picture quality of a DSLR, yet is about half the size and weight and far less complex. Enjoy Full HD movies, astounding low-light pictures and incredible panoramic shots.
Features
The NXCAM NEX-FS100E Super 35mm camcorder has been developed specifically for shooting
truly stunning images at low cost. The high sensitivity, large format CMOS sensor
is capable of producing full 1920 x 1080 progressive images with shallow depth of
field similar to that of a film camera.
For even more creative flexibility, the NEX-FS100 also enables extended continuous
recording and simultaneous recording of HD video footage for instant backup with
an HXR-FMU128 Flash Memory Unit. These and other valuable features make this compact,
high performance camera ideal for producing everything from low budget commercials,
music videos and documentaries to wedding videos.
The NEX-FS100E is supplied without lens so you can choose the optics which best
suit your creative requirements. Sony´s E-mount interchangeable lenses let
you enjoy a level of creative freedom unimaginable with camcorders of the past and
optional adaptors enable use of a vast array of lenses from a wide variety of manufacturers.
Exmor Super35 CMOS Sensor for Shooting Motion Pictures
Equipped with a large CMOS sensor equivalent in size to Super 35mm film, the NEX-FS100E
enables shooting with the same creative depth of field as the PMW-F3.
The sensor also features the optimum number of effective pixels for shooting HD
moving images. At a high 50fps in all-pixel scan mode, this allows images to be
captured with less colour aliasing, jaggedness and rolling shutter than DSLR cameras,
while providing the sensitivity to shoot at a minimum illumination of 0.28lux. Another
advantage of Exmor technology is minimal noise when shooting low-light scenes.
E-Mount Interchangeable Lens System
Sony's E-mount interchangeable lenses let you enjoy a level of creative freedom
unimaginable with camcorders of the past. Thanks to the E-mount´s short 18mm
flange-back distance, using a mount adaptor allows shooting with a wide range of
existing lenses. For example, with the optional LA-EA1 mount adaptor, you can take
advantage of the abundant lenses (A-mount lenses). Third-party lens adaptors enable
use of an ever wider-variety of additional lenses.
Modular design for a variety of shooting styles
Featuring a compact, lightweight body with detachable grip, handle, and viewfinder,
the NEX-FS100E is ideal for a wide range of shooting situations.
During hand-held shooting, the angle of the grip can be changed as desired, and
recording started and stopped with a button on the grip. Recording start/stop buttons
are also provided on the top and lower right of the camera.
There are also 1/4- and 3/8-inch screw holes on both the handle and the bottom of
the camera body for mounting various peripheral devices. Plus a tape measure hook
and an image sensor position index on the body.
XtraFine LCD panel
Located on the optical axis, the 3.5-inch-type XtraFine LCD panel enables easier,
more intuitive framing, especially during hand-held shooting. And the LCD panel
can be rotated for stress-free operation when shooting low-angle scenes and digital
signage footage. For easier, more precise focusing in daylight, the viewfinder comes
with a detachable 1.2x magnifier.
1920 x 1080P Slow and Quick Motion
Recording images at a different frame rate from that used for playback provides
the extra versatility of slow and quick motion shooting. Furthermore, the NEX-FS100E
enables Full HD (1920 x 1080) progressive slow and quick motion. Frame rates are
selectable from among 50fps, 25fps, 12fps, 6fps, 3fps, 2fps and 1fps. So, for example,
when recording at 1080/25p, if the frame rate is set to 50fps, images are recorded
in 2 times slow motion. This means you can create impressive slow motion scenes
without the need for troublesome editing.
Hybrid recording
Recording to the directly mountable HXR-FMU128 Flash Memory unit allows continuous
recording for over 10 hours without changing the recording medium. Simultaneous
recording using memory cards and other media is also possible for secure backup
when shooting footage that can't be reshot.
NXCAM Recording Format
Like other NXCAM series cameras, the NEX-FS100E uses the well established AVCHD
recording format supported by a wide range of nonlinear editing systems. Better
still, it's ready to shoot with a maximum frame rate of 1920 x 1080/50p (28Mbps)
for even higher quality recording. For more flexibility, it´s also possible
to record in Standard Definition MPEG-2 format.
Uncompressed 4:2:2 Output with Embedded Time code
When shooting, the NEX-FS100E can output uncompressed 4:2:2 footage via HDMI (with
an embedded SMPTE Time Code) which can be recorded onto external media, such as
HDD.
Geotagging with built-in GPS receiver
A built-in GPS receiver makes the NEX-FS100E an ideal choice for professional videographers.
The receiver gives you the ability to "geo-tag" shooting locations - making
it easy if you need to return to the same location or to create a log when surveying
remote locations. Your locations can be tracked on Google Maps and all GPS data
can be extracted with a PC.
Additionally, the receiver automatically adjusts your camcorder´s clock to
the proper time zone when international travel is part of your assignment.
Picture Profile
Six picture profile settings for different shooting conditions are provided as default
settings. Selecting a picture profile for a particular scene offers an easy way
to creatively change your shoot.
Last Scene Review
Press a single button to immediately review the last recorded scene.
Expanded Focus
Press a button and this enlarges the centre of the displayed image by 2x, a particularly
useful feature when making critical focusing adjustments.
Histogram
Onscreen display of a histogram enables easier exposure adjustment. The histogram
also shows the point where the zebra pattern appears (the zebra point). This enables
confirmation of overall brightness distribution and the brightness level set with
the zebra function. As well as preventing overexposure, this is useful as a guide
when aiming for optimum exposure of certain parts of an image, such as faces.
Peaking
A peaking function draws a defined line around the subject displayed in the LCD
monitor and viewfinder. Peaking sensitivity and colour (red, white, yellow) can
be selected to enable more precise focusing.
Markers
Centre, aspect, safety zone, guide frame and other markers can be displayed on the
LCD.
