Sony FX6 Full-Frame Cinema Camera Rental in Surrey, BC
The FX6 is Sony's full-frame cinema camera made for long documentary days and interviews. Built-in variable ND lets you hold exposure as the light changes without swapping filters, and the XLR inputs are on the body. It's bigger than the FX3 and runs on BP-U batteries rather than the FX3's, so for handheld work plan on a larger gimbal like the DJI RS4 Pro.

Good to know
- It's body only, so add a Sony E-mount lens from the list below.
- The top handle, side handle and LCD monitor are in the case, with one BP-U35 battery and a 64GB SD card.
- Sony rates a BP-U35 at about 105 minutes of 4K recording with a lens and the monitor on. Add spare BP-U batteries for a full day.
- The handle adds a stereo mic and a multi-interface shoe. The two XLR inputs are on the body.
