Prices and stock are moving extremely fast during Prime Day. These amzn.to links take you straight to the current offers.
So that was our intention: to bring you clarity on the latest deals for the DJI Pocket 3 camera. We do know that the Pocket 4, as well as the Pocket 4 Pro, are not available in the United States of America. Yes, their alternatives are expected to arrive in the first half of July 2026, and yes, we are talking about the Xtra Muse 2 Pro camera. But at the very same time, if you’re looking for a budget-friendly alternative, the DJI Pocket 3 remains one of the strongest options available right now.
Why the Osmo Pocket 3 Is Still the Pocket Vlogging King in 2026
The Osmo Pocket 3 isn’t just another compact camera — it’s a complete content creation powerhouse in your palm.
Key specs that matter:
1-inch CMOS sensor (massive upgrade from Pocket 2’s 1/1.7″)
4K/120fps uncropped slow-motion video
3-axis mechanical gimbal stabilization (butter-smooth even while running or dancing)
2-inch rotatable touchscreen (shoot horizontal or vertical effortlessly)
D-Log M + 10-bit color for serious grading flexibility
Excellent low-light performance and dynamic range
Magnetic accessory ecosystem + wide-angle lens support
Built-in directional mics + seamless DJI Mic integration (especially in Creator Combos)
It’s the ultimate tool for solo creators, travel vloggers, YouTubers, BTS shooters, product reviewers, and anyone who wants pro-level stabilized footage without lugging around a full rig.
Creator Combo vs Standalone – Which Should You Grab?
With the Creator Combo, you also get an extended battery and a mini tripod for handling the camera. So overall, having a Creator Combo is a very smart decision. However, if your budget does not allow for it and you end up with the standalone version of the camera, try to get at least one transmitter.
It will improve your audio quality since the DJI Pocket 3 camera supports DJI wireless microphones and transmitters without the need for any extra receiver hardware. It will automatically sync with the camera, so either you should go with the standalone version and a separate transmitter that fits your budget or, ideally, go with the Creator Combo.
Standalone ($378 range): Perfect if you already have audio solutions or want the lightest possible setup. You still get the full 1-inch sensor magic and gimbal.
Creator Combo (the one most people should consider at these prices): Includes the camera + DJI Mic 2 transmitter, wide-angle lens, battery handle, mini tripod, protective cover, wrist strap, and carrying bag. The wireless mic alone makes a huge difference for clear dialogue in vlogs, interviews, and talking-head content.
Real-World Performance That Keeps Creators Coming Back
The DJI Pocket 3 does have a large 1-inch sensor, undoubtedly the best pocket gimbal camera available at this price point, coming straight from DJI branding. Other than that, if you are willing to buy the Pocket 4 camera, keep in mind the Pocket 3 and Pocket 4 share the same sensor and lens module, so overall the video quality of both will remain the same.
And the big issue is that in the United States of America, the Pocket 4 is not available; the best investment would be to buy the DJI Pocket 3 camera.
Other than that, if you really need a massive upgrade and already own a DJI Pocket 3 camera, then you should wait for the Xtra Muse 2 Pro camera, which is about to arrive in the first half of July 2026.
Should You Buy During Prime Day 2026?
Yes — if:
You’ve been waiting for a sub-$400 entry into serious pocket vlogging
You want the Creator Combo kit without paying full price
You create YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, or client work and value stabilization + audio quality
You want one of the best “run-and-gun” cameras available before potential new model launches
Wait if:
You only need it for casual use (your phone might still be fine)
You’re waiting for a hypothetical Pocket 4 (rumors exist, but the 3 is extremely mature and discounted now)
Pro tip: These deals are live during Prime Day (typically running through late June into early July in recent patterns). Popular bundles sell out or prices jump back up quickly once the event ends.
Final Verdict: One of the Best Prime Day Camera Deals of 2026
The DJI Osmo Pocket 3 at these prices is a no-brainer for most creators. The 1-inch sensor + mechanical stabilization + excellent tracking in such a tiny body is still unmatched in its category.
Whether you grab the standalone at ~$378 or go all-in on a Creator Combo via the links above, you’re getting a future-proof content creation tool at a price that won’t last.

June 25, 2026 – LK Samyang has officially announced the AF 60-180mm f/2.8 FE, the final lens in its Compact Zoom Series. Co-developed with Schneider-Kreuznach, the new telephoto zoom gives Sony full-frame shooters a significantly lighter and more affordable constant-aperture option compared to Sony’s own FE 70-200mm f/2.8 GM OSS II.
Now we have Trio completed with this launch, Samyang completes a three-lens system that covers 14mm to 180mm at f/2.8 while keeping the total weight of all three lenses at just 1.67 kg – a major advantage for photographers who want professional zoom coverage without carrying heavy gear.
Key Specifications
Focal Length: 60-180mm
Maximum Aperture: Constant f/2.8
Weight: 730g
Length: 149mm (at 60mm) / 174.4mm (at 180mm)
Maximum Magnification: 0.26x (1:3.8)
Autofocus: Linear Stepping Motor (STM)
Other Features: Weather sealing, AF/MF switch, Zoom Lock
Mount: Sony E-mount (FE)
Why This Lens Matters for Sony Users
Most Sony full-frame users who need telephoto reach currently rely on the Sony FE 70-200mm f/2.8 GM OSS II, which delivers excellent performance but comes with a significant downside: it weighs 1,045g and the cost burns the pocket. Many photographers find it too heavy for all-day carry, travel, or run-and-gun shooting.
It is approximately 315g lighter than the Sony 70-200mm f/2.8 GM II
It starts slightly wider at 60mm
It is expected to be priced significantly lower than Sony’s GM lens
This combination of reduced weight and more accessible pricing makes the Samyang lens particularly appealing for travel photographers, event shooters, hybrid creators, and anyone looking to build a high-performance but lighter Sony kit.
Completing the Ultra-Light Compact Zoom System
Have a look at the trio we have from the Samyang, The 60-180mm f/2.8 joins Samyang’s existing Compact Zoom Series to create a complete 14-180mm f/2.8 system:

With all three lenses together weighing just 1.67 kg, easy to carry in your camera bag without shoulder pain, as well as as we have said earlier without creating a big hole in your pocket. Sony users can now cover an extremely versatile focal range with constant f/2.8 performance at a much lower price tag
Design and Real-World Usability
The lens includes several practical features for everyday shooting:
Fast and quiet Linear Stepping Motor autofocus, suitable for both stills and video
Weather sealing for reliability in outdoor conditions
AF/MF switch for quick manual focus control
Zoom Lock switch to prevent unwanted zoom extension during transport
These features make it well-suited for hybrid shooters using Sony cameras such as the A7 IV, A7R V, A7S III, and A1.
Who Should Consider This Lens?
This lens is a good fit if you:
Want a lighter and more affordable alternative to the Sony 70-200mm f/2.8 GM II
Shoot travel, events, portraits, or hybrid content
Value reducing kit weight without sacrificing constant f/2.8 performance
Already own or plan to buy the Samyang 14-24mm and 24-60mm f/2.8 lenses
Sample Images & Full Review Coming Soon
We have requested a review unit of the LK Samyang AF 60-180mm f/2.8 FE. Once we receive the lens, we will add real-world sample images along with our detailed hands-on review and impressions.
Availability and Pricing
The LK Samyang AF 60-180mm f/2.8 FE is now officially launched and goes on sale starting June 25, 2026. It will be available through major U.S. retailers including B&H Photo and Adorama.
While official pricing has not been announced, based on the pricing of the previous lenses in Samyang’s Compact Zoom Series, the AF 60-180mm f/2.8 is expected to land in the $1,000 – $1,200 range. This would make it substantially more affordable than the Sony FE 70-200mm f/2.8 GM OSS II while offering meaningful savings in both weight and cost.
We will update this article with official U.S. pricing and pre-order links as soon as the information is released.

Amazon Prime Video deals June 2026, which have already started and will run for a limited time only(June 23–26), and the TTArtisan AF 40mm f/2 is one of the more interesting budget full-frame lenses to watch during the sale.
One of the best things is that the compact metal prime lens is budget-friendly and offers good build quality and usability. Since the announcement, it has become one of the most popular prime lenses among photographers and content creators, offering strong value at a low price. Here’s everything you need to know before buying during Prime Day.
US Price: Usually sells for around $168. (Price updated continuously )
Even without a any sort of big discount, it remains one of the cheapest ways to get a full-frame autofocus prime with good build quality. If it drops even $20–30 during Prime Day, it becomes excellent value.
Excellent all-metal build and premium feel for the price
Extremely compact and lightweight
Dedicated aperture ring (rare at this price)
Good center sharpness and contrast
Pleasant character with nice bokeh at f/2
Very good value for everyday and street photography
Cons:
No weather sealing
Visible vignetting and softer corners at f/2
Can flare in strong backlight
Autofocus is usable but slower than native Sony or Nikon lenses
How Does It Compare?
Vs Sony 40mm f/2.5 G: TTArtisan is cheaper, has an aperture ring, and feels more premium in hand, but Sony has better autofocus and weather sealing.
Vs Nikon 40mm f/2: Very similar in concept. TTArtisan offers better build quality at a lower price but slightly weaker AF performance.
Who Should Buy It?
This lens is ideal if you want:
A small, high-quality walkaround prime for street, travel, portraits, or daily use
A metal lens with an aperture ring without spending ₹50,000+
Something lightweight for Sony A7C series, A7 IV, Nikon Zf, or Panasonic S5/S9
Skip it if you need weather resistance or the fastest, most reliable autofocus.
Final Verdict
At its regular price, the TTArtisan AF 40mm f/2 already offers strong value. During Prime Day 2026, it’s worth keeping an eye on — especially if the price drops.
DJI Pocket 4P, which means Pro Edition, is now already available and shipping in Mainland China as well as we have dates for shipping in Taiwan, which is June 29, and in most parts of Asia, including India, the retailers now have it in stock and are waiting for customers to check in and make an order. Other than that, the biggest issue is that American creators are once again facing the same frustrating situation – the Pocket 4P is not coming to the USA through official channels anytime soon.
While DJI continues to deal with regulatory hurdles that have blocked multiple recent products from the US market, a strong alternative is emerging. The Xtra Muse 2 Pro, which many are already calling the “DJI of the USA,” is expected to launch in July 2026 and is being positioned as a direct competitor with official US availability and support.
This article breaks down the current global status of the Pocket 4P and why the Xtra Muse 2 Pro may be the better option for US buyers right now.

Why Taiwan Has a June 29 Date
Taiwan is getting its Pocket 4P camera on June 29, and the reason behind that is the local distributor, Synnex Technology, has officially announced that they have the stocks and anyone can pick up the Pocket 4P from the distributor points or shops starting from June 29.
This is a localized rollout, and now let’s talk about the DJI Pocket 4 Pro status in the USA and the options we have for now.
DJI Pocket 4P Is Not Coming to USA (For Now)
Yes, that’s the fact we have for now – new DJI drone models have effectively been blocked from the US market. Before December 2025, what we knew was that the drones were about to face restrictions since no US agency had completed the required national security review within the one-year timeframe.
The most unfortunate part is that, despite no fault on DJI’s side, the penalty ultimately fell on them anyway. And even more surprising is that not only the drones, but also new pocket camera models have been affected by the same restrictions.
But we don’t have to worry since we have an excellent option that we are going to discuss in the next paragraph.
Xtra Muse 2 Pro: The Better Alternative for US Buyers
While DJI continues to face delays in the US market, Xtra Technology’s Muse 2 Pro is emerging as the stronger and more practical option for American creators.
Xtra has been developing the Muse 2 Pro specifically with the US market in mind. The camera is expected to feature a very similar dual-lens setup (1-inch sensor + telephoto) and a core specification very similar to Pocket 4 PRO, and is likely to be announced in early July 2026, with availability expected in mid-to-late July.
Unlike DJI, Xtra is positioned to offer:
Official US availability
Local warranty and support
Proper retail presence through major US stores
For most US creators, the Xtra Muse 2 Pro currently looks like the better long-term choice compared to waiting indefinitely for the DJI Pocket 4P or relying on grey market imports.
Final Thoughts
Don,t worry.. We are about to get the DJI Pocket 4P under a different brand name. With the Xtra Muse 2 Pro expected to launch in the US in July, many creators may find it to be the more reliable and practical alternative to the DJI Pocket 4P.
We will continue monitoring both products closely and will provide updates as soon as more information becomes available regarding US availability.

Do the recently announced DJI 4P Pro camera and the recently announced XTRA Muse 2 PRO share almost the same core specifications? The comparison also becomes more important since we do have only one option available here in the USA. To confirm, are we missing something while picking up the Xtra Muse 2 PRO, or are we making the right decision? The comparison will clear all possible doubts you have related to the Xtra Muse 2 PRO vs DJI Pocket 4 Pro.
So finally, we have a new competitor coming in, and it is now official and will soon become widely available for pre-order on leading United States-based online and retail websites.
The DJI Osmo Pocket 4 Pro (also known as Pocket 4P) officially launched in mainland China in mid-June 2026. The Xtra Muse 2 Pro is currently in early access, with a wider US launch expected soon. Here’s a fully updated, cross-verified comparison.

Design & Ergonomics
Both cameras share a similar design and a dual-lens camera-based setup for high-quality videos. Overall, the cameras are the same at the same time.
Why DJI feels slightly more premium thanks to the new zoom rocker and customizable function button, which improve one-handed operation.
The Xtra Muse 2 Pro stands out with two practical improvements that matter in real-world use:
A native 1/4″-20 tripod thread built into the base
A bi-directional flipping screen that works well for both left- and right-handed shooters
The Xtra is also a bit lighter. Many creators consider the native tripod mount a meaningful quality-of-life upgrade.
Image Quality & Dynamic Range
This is the most interesting part of the comparison right now.
Before we jump into the technical terms of the sensors and their characteristics, we have to convey one thing. Both cameras carry almost the same type of sensor and image processor inside them. Even the image-processing algorithms running inside both cameras, responsible for neat and clean video output, implementing IBIS, as well as processing high-quality log files, are very similar. The names are different, obviously, but technically both are the same. So, let’s jump into those technical terms and the differences present in both.
DJI Osmo Pocket 4 Pro uses a 1-inch LOFIC sensor on the wide end, which enables up to 17 stops of dynamic range when shooting in D-Log 2. The telephoto uses a smaller 1/1.28-inch sensor at 60mm f/1.8. The LOFIC technology gives the wide lens a hardware advantage in highlight recovery and low-light noise performance.
However, because the two lenses use different sensors, there can be differences in color response and noise characteristics when switching between them. D-Log 2 also locks zoom to 1x only.
Xtra Muse 2 Pro is now officially marketed with up to 17 stops of dynamic range using its 10-bit X-Log 3 profile. The dual-lens system consists of a 1-inch main sensor + a dedicated 3x optical zoom module. Xtra is heavily pushing the 17-stop figure in its marketing and early access materials, positioning the camera as a direct competitor to the DJI Pocket 4 Pro in dynamic range and grading flexibility.
Real-world testing data is still limited, but early low-light and night footage teasers from Xtra look promising, with good detail retention and controlled noise.
Current verdict on image quality: The two cameras are now much closer than previously thought. Both claim 17 stops of dynamic range. DJI has the advantage of LOFIC hardware on the wide lens and more mature color science, while Xtra offers very competitive specs at a lower price.
Video Performance & Features
None of these support 8K but, yes we do have support high-frame-rate 4K recording and 10-bit log profiles suitable for professional color grading. DJI currently has more confirmed details on split frame rates between the two lenses and faster transfer speeds (USB-C 3.1 Gen 2 + Wi-Fi 6).
ActiveTrack-style subject tracking is expected to perform well on both. If you already use DJI microphones or other accessories, the Pocket 4 Pro will integrate more seamlessly.
Price & Availability
This remains the clearest practical difference:
DJI Osmo Pocket 4 Pro: Launched in China at around CNY 3,799. Official US and global availability is still restricted. Grey market options exist but come with support limitations.
Xtra Muse 2 Pro: Early access is currently open in USA. The expected price is in the $6XX range, with early supporters receiving a $60 launch coupon after a $20 refundable deposit.
Pros & Cons
DJI Osmo Pocket 4 Pro
Pros: LOFIC sensor advantage on wide lens, mature color science and processing, physical zoom controls, strong ecosystem, better long-term support and resale value.
Cons: Higher price, limited official availability outside China, potential mismatch between the two different sensors, D-Log 2 restricts zoom.
Xtra Muse 2 Pro
Pros: Strong value proposition, native 1/4″ tripod mount, versatile bi-directional screen, lighter weight, easier availability (especially in the US), expandable storage, matching 17-stop DR claim with X-Log 3.
Cons: Newer brand with unproven long-term support, real-world consistency of 17-stop claim still needs verification through independent tests.
Final Verdict
The gap between these two cameras has narrowed significantly with the latest information on the Xtra Muse 2 Pro.
Choose the DJI Osmo Pocket 4 Pro if:
You want the most refined experience with proven color science and ecosystem support
You prioritize hardware advantages like LOFIC on the wide lens
You can reliably source it through grey market channels
Choose the Xtra Muse 2 Pro if:
You are in USA already connected to DJI eco system
You want excellent specifications at a more accessible price
You value practical design improvements (native mount + screen versatility)
You want easier availability and local support, especially in the US
Our current recommendation: The Xtra Muse 2 Pro has become a much stronger contender. With its 17-stop dynamic range claim via X-Log 3, 3x optical zoom module, and significantly better pricing and availability, it offers very compelling value. Most importantly, the Xtra muse 2 is widely available in USA without any issue.
We’ll continue updating coverage on thenewcamera.com with hands-on testing, sample footage, and India-specific availability information as both cameras become more widely accessible.

Amazon Prime Day already started from June 23, 2026, and as we all know, the DJI Mini 4K has emerged as one of the most popular drones ever released, and more than 3,000 to 4,000 units of the DJI Mini 4K drone are being sold on Amazon USA alone. So, this Prime Day, we are getting an approx 30% price drop over the MSRP price of the Mini 4K drone.
And the best part is because the drone weighs just 246g, it does not require FAA registration or Remote ID for recreational flying. This makes it one of the easiest DJI drones to own and fly legally in the US in 2026.
Important Update: Prime Day deals are already live on Amazon. However, the biggest discounts on the DJI Mini 4K and its bundles are expected to appear within the next few days. We will continue updating the prices in this article as the main deals go live between June 23–26. Check the links below for the latest pricing.
Why the DJI Mini 4K Stands Out in 2026
DJI Mini 4K is said to be one of the most affordable and advanced versions of the Mini series of DJI drones. It has been designed for beginners and weighs under 250g, so it doesn’t require any sort of registration for flying. Other than that, it does deliver high-quality 4K video without spending a fortune.
And the standout key features include a built-in 3-axis gimbal that gives you excellent stable video footage on the go. Whether your drone is moving at high speed or staying stable in the middle, you’re always getting very stable footage, which is really impossible from a budget drone available in the USA. Other than that, we are also getting reliable GPS-assisted flight modes and intelligent shooting modes, all packed in a compact body, and that’s one of the biggest reasons for the higher amount of sales of the DJI Mini 4K drone in the United States of America.
DJI Mini 4K Prime Day Deals – Current Best Options
Here are the top bundles available on Amazon right now. Prices are likely to drop further once Prime Day officially begins.
DJI Mini 4K Standard Combo (1 Battery)
Best choice for first-time buyers who want the lowest entry price.
Recommendation: If you plan to fly regularly, the Fly More Combo usually offers better long-term value, especially when it goes on discount during Prime Day.
DJI Mini 4K – FAA Regulations & Legal Flying in the USA
One of the biggest advantages of the DJI Mini 4K is its weight. At 246g, it falls under the 249g limit. As per current FAA rules in 2026:
No registration is required for recreational use.
Remote ID is not mandatory.
You can fly it in most areas without needing an FAA Remote Pilot Certificate (Part 107).
However, you must still follow standard drone rules:
Fly below 400 feet
Keep the drone in your line of sight
Avoid restricted airspace and airports
Respect privacy and no-fly zones
This regulatory simplicity makes the Mini 4K especially attractive for beginners and hobbyists in the United States.

Image and Video Quality
The DJI Mini 4K delivers usable 4K footage for social media, YouTube, real estate, and casual content creation. The 3-axis gimbal does a good job of stabilizing footage even in moderate wind.
However, because it uses a smaller 1/2.3-inch sensor, it has limitations:
Dynamic range is average
Low-light performance is average (noise increases in dim conditions)
Colors are decent but not as rich as the Mini 3 or Mini 4 Pro
For daylight shooting and well-lit environments, the Mini 4K performs well for its price. It is noticeably better than most cheap, no-name drones in terms of colour and stabilisation.
Real-World Flight Performance
Most of us in our team have the same DJI Mini 4K drone. Once it’s fully charged, you get approximately 20 to 24 minutes of flight time per battery, depending upon the wind conditions and the flying style. If you opt for this situation, you are getting a drone that handles wind at normal speeds very well and delivers excellent, stable video footage on the go.
But yes, we have to add one thing here: the drone does not have a proper obstacle avoidance mode that we have in the high-end DJI drones. So you have to be more careful while flying near trees, power lines, or in very tight spaces. Yes, but the GPS-assisted Return to Home works reliably very well.
Pros and Cons
Pros:
No FAA registration or Remote ID required in the US
True 4K video with 3-axis gimbal stabilization
Compact, foldable, and easy to carry
Good wind resistance for its class
Beginner-friendly with intelligent flight modes
Affordable entry into the DJI ecosystem
Cons:
No obstacle avoidance sensors
Average low-light and dynamic range performance
Real-world flight time is lower than lab rating
Older O2 transmission system
Who Should Buy the DJI Mini 4K?
The DJI Mini 4K is best suited for:
Beginners who want their first proper DJI drone
Content creators and vloggers on a budget
Real estate agents looking for simple aerial shots
Travel enthusiasts who want a lightweight drone for trips
Users who want to avoid FAA registration hassle
If you regularly fly in complex environments or need better low-light performance, consider saving for the DJI Mini 3 or waiting for better deals on the Mini 4 Pro during Prime Day.
Final Verdict – Should You Buy the DJI Mini 4K During Prime Day 2026?
The DJI Mini 4K is one of the best budget 4K drones available in 2026, especially if you can buy it during Prime Day at a discounted price.
It offers the right balance of performance, portability, and legal simplicity for most beginners and casual users in the United States. While it lacks obstacle avoidance and has average low-light capabilities, it delivers solid 4K footage in good lighting conditions at a very reasonable price.
If your budget is under $300 and you want a hassle-free drone experience, the Mini 4K is a strong recommendation during Prime Day.

We were waiting for as much confirmationas we could get over this topic, and now we can confirm and say that yes, the Sony FX3 Mark II is in the announcement pipeline and from the multiple sources, the information that we have received has been summarized in this article. The Sony FX3 is one of the most popular consumer-level filmmakers’ cameras for those who want to have an excellent filming tool without spending a fortune on the CineAlta Series.
Now coming back to the point, new regulatory filings which are straight coming out from China show that Sony has registered a new FX-series model, which is widely believed to be the long-rumored Sony FX3 Mark II, so this does guarantee that yes, FX3 Mark II camera is in the announcement pipeline and once the camera is registered with a regulatory agency, more or less within the next three months, that is on or before September 2026, we will have the announcement of the FX3 Mark II camera if everything goes on schedule.
Shanghai Suoguang (Suoguang Visual Products Co., Ltd.): Exact match. This is the Shanghai manufacturing/registration entity. On April 24, 2026, they registered the ILME-FX* model. They (together with the Wuxi factory) account for the two newest registrations. The earlier A7R VI (ILCE-7RM6 / WW847606) was registered in February 2026 by Japan Sony Corp. So “Soso has now only registered two products” (the April pair) is accurate in context.
Registration Details Leak that made us believe it’s the FX3 II Camera
ILME-FX new model, made in Shanghai by Soguang/Suoguang, WW679476 (or WW679475 in some reports)**: Confirmed. This is the key registration. The ILME- prefix + FX is the standard Sony coding for Cinema Line full-frame models (FX3 was ILME-FX3, FX6 was ILME-FX6, etc.). It has Wi-Fi 6 support. Widely and consistently rumored to be the Sony FX3 II / FX3 successor.

Key Registration Details
According to reports from multiple sources tracking Chinese certifications (CMIIT and related databases):
Model Code
Factory
Connectivity
Likely Identity
Registration Date
ILME-FX*
Shanghai Suoguang
Wi-Fi 6
FX3 II
April 24, 2026

Sony Wuxi
Standard
Entry-level / ZV / RX
April 24, 2026
ILCE-7RM6
Japan Sony
Wi-Fi 6
A7R VI
February 2026
The ILME-FX* prefix is reserved for Sony’s Cinema Line cameras. Combined with the Shanghai manufacturing location and Wi-Fi 6 support, this strongly points to a direct successor to the original FX3 rather than an entirely new model in the lineup.
FX3 II Expected to Retain Compact Form Factor
The early indications that we are getting from the registration details is the compact FX3 Cinema Camera will follow the same run-and-gun philosophy that has been followed since the announcement of the original FX3, which was announced back in 2021. Obviously, just after the announcement, the FX3 series has become one of the most popular series among solo filmmakers for shooting documentaries and commercial projects on a budget. Early indications suggest the new camera will follow the same compact, run-and-gun philosophy that made the original FX3 (2021) a favourite among solo filmmakers, documentary crews, and hybrid shooters.
Battery and Charging
According to the latest registration details, the ILME-FX* model (WW679476) is listed with Sony’s newer NP-SA100 battery – the same higher-capacity battery first introduced with the A7R VI. This marks the first time the NP-SA100 has appeared in a Cinema Line camera registration.
In contrast, the second newly registered model (E-Mount *****, WW721795) continues to use the existing NP-FZ100 battery, along with a lower-power 7.5W charger.
The ILME-FX* registration also indicates support for 30W USB-C Power Delivery charging, which is consistent with the higher-capacity NP-SA100 battery. This suggests Sony may introduce updated charging accessories alongside the new camera.
While the adoption of the NP-SA100 battery should deliver improved runtime, it also raises questions about compatibility with existing FX3 batteries, chargers, and accessories. We expect Sony to clarify this at the time of the official announcement.
FX3 II or FX4? Naming Debate
Recent social media discussion has included speculation about whether Sony might call the new camera FX4 instead of FX3 II.
And this has been started by one of the most trusted sources, Camera Insider, the Twitter account, but what I personally believe here, that is my personal take, that Sony will follow up the regular naming convention, and after Sony FX3, we will have the FX3 Mark II model. If Sony announces the Sony FX4, it will be a step-up model than the FX3 series. And yes, the probability does exist about the appearance of the FX4, since we do have the FX2 announcement in the past, and if Sony wants to continue to explore the possibilities about the expansion of the Sony FX series, then yes, the FX4 does have a strong chance here.
How This Fits Sony’s 2026 Camera Roadmap
Sony has been unusually active with certifications in 2026:
February 2026: A7R VI (ILCE-7RM6) registered
April 24, 2026: ILME-FX* + entry-level model registered
This suggests Sony is preparing multiple launches throughout 2026. The FX3 II is currently tipped for a possible announcement window around August 2026 (ahead of IBC), though this remains speculative.
What We Still Don’t Know
Exact sensor specifications (rumors of a partially stacked sensor for faster readout have circulated but are unconfirmed)
Internal recording formats and frame rate capabilities
Viewfinder or LCD upgrades
Pricing and availability (India/US)
Current FX3 Still Excellent – But Update Is Welcome
The original Sony FX3 remains one of the best compact full-frame cinema cameras available in 2026. The price of the camera is around $4298 at Amazon.com, and only a few units are left in stock. . However, after more than four years on the market, an update addressing rolling shutter, autofocus performance in video, and modern connectivity (Wi-Fi 6, better streaming options) would be very well received.
Bottom Line
Yes, we do need an FX3 II update. The ILME-FX* registration by Shanghai Suoguang is the strongest official signal yet that a new compact Cinema Line camera – almost certainly the FX3 II – is in development. While we don’t have full specifications yet, the manufacturing location, model prefix, and connectivity details align perfectly with expectations for an FX3 successor.
We’ll continue monitoring regulatory filings and credible sources for more details. As always, take all pre-announcement information with the usual grain of salt.
