Sony FX3 in 2025: The Mighty Mini Cinema Camera Still Reigns Supreme

Sony FX3 in 2025: The Mighty Mini Cinema Camera Still Reigns Supreme

The Sony FX3 is a unique hybrid of mirrorless and cinema camera design, offering high-end video capabilities in a tiny, 2 lb body ts2.tech. It is part of Sony’s Cinema Line, sharing DNA with the higher-end FX6 and FX9, but miniaturized into a form factor similar to the a7 series cameras. Despite its size, the FX3 is built for video-first operation – evident in its feature set and design: Overall, the FX3’s technical package makes it a tiny yet truly professional video camera. It stands out by giving creators essentially the same imaging pipeline as a $6K+ cinema camera in a form factor you can fit in one hand. As a review from CineD summed up, “with its many features, the Sony FX3 is positioned as an interesting choice for those who want to produce high quality video… prioritizing the video aspect over the photo side.” The photography features are indeed pared down, but that’s the trade-off Sony chose to benefit filmmakers ts2.tech ts2.tech.

DJI’s Full-Frame Mirrorless Camera Rumor: September Launch to Shake Up Sony and Canon?

The photography world is buzzing with talk that DJI – best known for drones – may launch a full-frame mirrorless camera in mid-September 2025. Multiple rumor outlets report that DJI could unveil the camera on September 15, 2025, marking the company’s first foray into a traditional interchangeable-lens camera system digitalcameraworld.com. According to Digital Camera World, these rumors gained traction after DJI-Rumors.com and Mirrorless Rumorsshared tantalizing clues: a blurred teaser image allegedly from DJI hinting at an upcoming event, and claims that an official announcement is imminent digitalcameraworld.com. The consensus from the rumor mill is that DJI’s camera will use the Leica L-Mount and pack a full-frame sensorin a design reminiscent of Sony’s FX3 cine camera digitalcameraworld.com. In other words, expect a boxy, video-focused body with an integrated electronic viewfinder positioned at one corner, plus DJI’s secret sauce in color science borrowed from its partner Hasselblad digitalcameraworld.com.

48 Hours of Camera Chaos: Canon & Nikon Declare War on Sony, Hasselblad Unleashes 100MP Beast

New U.S. import tariffs are sending shockwaves through the camera industry. Nikon USA’s prices jumped on Sept. 1, marking the second increase this year and averaging about 7.5–11% hikes on cameras and lenses canonrumors.com. In a statement acknowledging customer frustration, Nikon explained: “As we continue to navigate the impact of tariffs, a further price adjustment will take effect September 1, 2025…we are taking every possible step to minimize the impact on our community” canonrumors.com. This follows an earlier across-the-board increase in June after tariffs on Chinese-made goods rose, and mirrors moves by other brands. Fujifilm quietly enacted its own U.S. price increase on August 18, though Fuji’s bump was reportedly a bit smaller than Nikon’s canonrumors.com. Industry watchers speculate Fujifilm may be trying to absorb some costs and could delay any further hikes unless tariffs persist into late fall canonrumors.com. Canon, for its part, has publicly warned that a second price raise is “not out of the question” – essentially cautioning that once its pre-tariff inventory is sold, it may have to adjust MSRP upward on cameras and lenses canonrumors.com.
