Sony FS5 Features - In-Depth Run-Through Video

sony-fs5-features

The new Sony FS5 is coming with an expected delivery starting in 2 weeks. In our exclusive review and our hands-on article we’ve taken a close look and think Sony has once again produced a highly relevant cinema camera.

Alister Chapman is the technical guru of Sony cameras and runs you through all the technical details the camera has to offer. It’s worth checking out this very informative video about all the Sony FS5 features, if you’re interested to understand the camera in its entirety.

Even if you’re not particularly after the Sony FS5 I guarantee you will enhance your general knowledge, especially when it comes to understand Sony’s S-log 2 and 3.

For easier navigation Alister has published a time index list to relevant sections of the video. If you liked the content please give the thanks to him, not us.
