According to the latest rumors we have, we have a Sony A7 V camera coming on or before September 2025. I was really waiting for this sort of confirmation for a long time, and now we have just received the confirmation.
Sony A7V Sensor Resolution
Sensor resolution-related confusion still exists, since even today, Sony Alpha Rumor (*1) posted a rumored specs of the camera via a Chinese source. Today, take a look.
I saw some prototypes, 44mpx 20fps non-stacked sensor 100% confirmed. same body as A1II same screen as A1II AI chip New improved evf compared to A7IV – could not confirm Better heat management
44 megapixel sensor is not new, we all know back from November 2023 that Sony does have an IMX366 sensor with 44 MP resolution, and there is a high possibility that they can use this sensor in the A7 V camera.
As for the core specifications I was expecting from the Sony A7V camera, the arrival of a 33-megapixel stacked sensor, the presence of an AI chip, and a new generation of the BIONZ X image processor. But, Recent rumors suggest that Sony is testing prototypes with the IMX366 sensor, which has a 44-megapixel resolution. The good thing about this sensor is that despite being a non-stacked sensor, the readout speed is very fast. The camera will be paired with Sony’s latest BIONZ X image processor and AI chip. This is not the first time we have gotten hints of a 44 Mp sensor, check here Unbelievable! Sony A7 V May Feature a 44-Megapixel Sensor
Another set of rumors that is continuously roaming over the internet is the use of a 33MP stacked Exmor sensor inside the upcoming Sony A7 Mark V camera. So, we have to still wait for the final confirmation related to the resolution, Sony A75 will carry inside it — a 33 MP stacked Exmor sensor or 44 MP non-stacked BSI CMOS sensor.
Sony FX2 versus the Nikon Z6 Mark III camera, let’s explore the differences between the two point by point
The Nikon Z6 Mark III camera is slightly larger, with a photography-friendly body and controls. The Sony FX2 does have a deep hand grip, but it has a somewhat boxy design. The thing that makes a big difference between the two, specifically in the design part, is that Sony is made for cinematography purposes and carries a lot of tripod threads all over the body to mount it perfectly in cinema rigs. The other advantage we have with the Sony FX2 camera is the moving viewfinder.
Nikon Z6 III and the Sony FX2 — both of them support dual card slots, one dedicated for CFexpress and one SD card slot. The Nikon Z6 Mark III monitor is slightly larger and of higher resolution, so users may experience better LCD quality with the Z6 Mark III camera. At the very same time, the electronic viewfinder is also a 5.76 million-dot unit compared to a 3.6 million-dot electronic viewfinder in Sony, but yeah, we are getting better display units in the Nikon Z6 Mark III.
The wireless functionality of the two is almost the same, but Nikon does have GPS support via smartphone to enable geotagging functionality for travel purposes, documentary work, or maybe for photojournalism purposes. The FX Mark 2 camera misses out. Although the humidity tolerance and the weatherproof criteria of both cameras match each other, so we literally do have almost the same build quality in both cameras.

Best Camera for Photographers
Sony FX2 camera offers higher resolution at 33 megapixels, but at the very same time, the Nikon Z6 Mark 3 camera offers 24.5 megapixel resolution, which is of course limited. But if you talk about sensor architecture, then the Nikon Z6 Mark 3 camera is using a partially stacked CMOS sensor.
Video Recording: Nikon Z6 III Excels
Of course, the Sony FX2 camera is able to create highly detailed 4K 30fps footage from a 7K oversampled file. At the very same time, when you are recording videos at 4K 60 frames per second or 4K 120 frames per second with the Nikon Z6 Mark 3 camera—and of course, to be noted—4K 120 FPS is not possible with the Sony FX2 despite being in a higher price range. Other than that, even when you are trying to record 4K @ 60 frames per second, at that time you have to face a 1.5x crop in the Sony FX2. So with the FX2, we have limitations attached in the higher frame rate, and 4K 120 is not possible.
Continuous Shooting Speed Comparison
The same advantage we also get in the continuous shooting speed of the camera, where we are able to get up to 20 FPS RAW, and up to 60 frames per second in full resolution, and up to 120 frames per second in the DX crop mode. Thankfully, the Sony FX2 camera is using a mechanical shutter, but despite that, the continuous shooting speed of the camera remains limited to 11 frames per second.
Autofocus: Sony FX2’s Precision
When you dive into autofocus performance, each system really brings something different to the table. Sony’s FX2 boasts a whopping 759 phase-detection points (compared with Nikon’s 299 “hybrid” points), which means it can lock onto—and keep track of—moving subjects across with Sony’s famous AI AF. That’s a huge advantage when you’re shooting fast-paced street scenes or busy event coverage.
Nikon Z6 III’s Low-Light Autofocus
On the other hand, Nikon’s autofocus shines in low-light situations. With a sensitivity down to –10 EV (versus Sony’s 4 EV), the Z6 III can find and focus on subjects in near-darkness—perfect for late-night cityscapes, dimly lit weddings, or cozy indoor gatherings.
Autofocus Tracking: Nikon Closing the Gap
Recent reviews peg the Z6 III’s subject recognition and tracking as nearly on par with Sony’s vaunted system, so you’re not really “giving up” much by choosing Nikon—especially if you need that extra push in challenging light. Still, many pros continue to call Sony the gold standard for sheer reliability, so it really comes down to what kind of shooting you do most often.
Image Stabilization: Nikon’s Edge
Sensor-shift image stabilization of the Nikon Z6 Mark 3 is more helpful, since you can link your autofocus point with the VR system of the camera, and you will be getting a true 7.5 stops of stabilization all the time, even if you are focusing in the corner of the frame. Sony’s Active Image Stabilization is highly effective in video mode, but when you are talking about stills, it’s the traditional-style IBIS system we are getting.
Why Choose Nikon Z6 III for Pros
Nikon Z6 Mark III camera, due to its partially stacked CMOS sensor and Expeed 7 image processor, the autofocus calculation is being done at the rate of 120 frames per second in-camera. So the autofocus and the auto exposure refresh rate is actually 120 FPS. And due to the introduction of a new artificially intelligent autofocus algorithm inside the camera, the overall photographic experience is now elevated to the next level.
So if you are a professional photographer, then the Nikon Z6 Mark 3 will be a perfect choice for your requirements.

Best Camera for Video
When it comes to video, the Z6 III feels like a powerhouse that’s ready to stretch your creativity. Imagine being able to capture in gorgeous ProRes RAW—right inside the camera—at up to 6K/60p. With the help of the stacked CMOS sensor, the camera can record 6K 60fps videos. Despite being a consumer hybrid mirrorless camera, the Nikon Z6 Mark III is able to deliver 6K resolution, that is really a big surprise. That means you’ve got room to push and pull your colors, tweak contrast, and hold onto every bit of shadow and highlight detail without worrying about external recorders or cables.
Nikon Z6 Mark III Slow-Motion Capabilities
And if you need silky-smooth slow-mo or a little extra resolution, you can jump into uncropped 4K/120p or even 1080p/240p modes. While shooting 4K 120 frames per second, you have to face a 1.5x DX crop, and when you are shooting 4K @ 60 frames per second, there is a negligible amount of crop, which remains unnoticeable.
Sony FX2 Video Features
Sony’s FX2 isn’t slouching, though. It delivers clean, 10-bit H.264/H.265 internally and will give you oversampled 4K/30p for sharp, detailed footage. If you really need that ProRes RAW goodness, you can use an external recorder via HDMI—but that means more gear hanging off your rig. And when you want to push the frame rate higher in 4K—meaning if you want to record your 4K videos at 60 frames per second—you have to face a 1.5x crop, and there is no 120 frames per second option available in the Sony FX2 while recording 4K videos.
Sony FX2 Live-Streaming Advantages
Where Sony shines is in its live-streaming chops: built-in RTMP/RTMPS and SRT support make it a dream camera for one-person streaming setups, whereas the Z6 III leaves you hunting for a separate encoder. Both cameras give you flexible picture profiles—N-Log on Nikon holds up beautifully alongside Sony’s S-Log 3 and S-Cinetone—but in professional circles, S-Log and Cinetone have built a bit more of a buzz.
Audio and Rolling Shutter Comparison
Don’t forget audio: both record in 24-bit LPCM, but Sony’s extra channels give you more mics or ambient tracks to play with. And if rolling shutter is a worry, Nikon’s stacked sensor really pulls ahead—its readout is faster, so you’ll see far less “jello” when you whip the camera side-to-side at 4K/60p or 120p.
Nikon Z6 III vs. Sony FX2: Which to Choose?
In short, if you’re a solo shooter who loves to color-grade, chase cinematic slow-mo, and keep your rig light, the Z6 III’s internal RAW and high-speed modes deliver. If you’re streaming live, mixing multiple audio sources, or don’t mind an external recorder for 16-bit RAW, the FX2’s built-in streaming and flexible codecs have you covered.

Sony announced the Sony FX2 camera. The camera is a mixture of the Sony A7 IV 33MP sensor and FX3 body. Now we have an AI chip inside the camera. The autofocus speed has been increased by up to 30%, and the tracking has been improved dramatically compared to the Sony Camera AIV. We have lots of new modes that include auto framing, framing stabilizer, and AI tracker that make the entire camera a kind of powerhouse Swiss Army knife.
Video capabilities also extend its boundaries to the maximum extent. Now we have certain angle DCI 4K and true 24fps recording. For professionals and videographers, we have an anamorphic recording mode in-camera, discreetly, as well as 24-bit audio recording capability with the help of XLR input.

Focus breathing compensation as well as dynamic active image stabilization also help this camera to explore a new dimension of usability and portability. However, the FX2 retains the Sony A7 IV 4K 60fps crop limitation. That’s really disappointing. Sony can add a line-skipping 4K 60 APS-C mode in their camera so users can have the uncropped version of 4K 60p recording by having a bit of loss in quality.
The price of the camera is expected to be somewhere around $2698. B&H Store

Is Petapixel host Jordan shooting with a Sony FX2 camera? First spotted by E88_8888, and then many people raised eyebrows by looking at the big body grip of the camera, almost no detail is noticeable.
The fact is that we can visibly see a deep hand grip in the Cinema camera, which is not present in any of the FX line of cameras. This is quite a big & deep, one more thing that hints to us its the new FX2 — whenever they start the NEW episodes, they generally write before the beginning of the video, which camera and lenses they are using to record the particular episode, but specifically on that particular episode Fuji X-Half Review, they have missed that thing. So it can be a coincidence or a conscious decision.
Sony FX2 Specification
– Same 33MP sensor as the α7IV and α7CII
– AI chip
– Equipped with a tilting EVF (resolution unknown)
– EVF is completely different from the LUMIX GX9 and is larger like the GFX100
– Mechanical shutter
– AI AF
– 4K60p in Super35
– 32-bit floating point audio
– The body is thicker than the FX3
– Active cooling system
– Same ports and storage as the FX3
– Vertical battery grip available
– Price is around $3500
But it’s strange that the FX2, a video camera, has a vertical grip. Since the FX2 has a mechanical shutter, perhaps Sony wants it to be used as a still camera as well. Look at the updated set of specifications Sony FX2 camera, which is about to arrive in a few days.

Sony is finally getting up to announce the Sony FX2 camera, and the announcement is expected on May 28, 2025. The FX2 is Sony’s first camera that uses an integrated tilting electronic viewfinder, and it is one of their first FX line of cinema cameras which uses the same 33 megapixel full frame sensor that we have seen in the Sony A7 IV. So let’s explore the core specification of the Sony FX2 camera.
Sony FX2 Specifications
1. Integrated Tiltable Electronic Viewfinder
Integrated tiltable electronic viewfinder: For the first time, a Sony camera is using a tiltable electronic viewfinder, which was first seen on the Panasonic GX9 camera. It will help photographers to recompose their shots in a very easy manner by hand-holding their camera even in daylight situations.
2. 33 Megapixel Full Frame CMOS Sensor
33 megapixel full frame CMOS sensor: It’s the same sensor that we have seen in the Sony A7 IV camera. We were expecting a kind of a new sensor, but yeah, it’s the same.
But the camera does deliver high-quality output. The only problem that users have faced with the Sony A7 IV camera from the time of announcement is the overheating limit, which is now completely fixed in the upcoming FX2 with the introduction of:
3. Built-in Fan for Thermal Management
Built-in Fan:The FX2 camera, despite being an entry level cinematography camera, does have a built-in fan which helps the camera to dissipate the heat in the best possible way.
So while using its 33 megapixel sensor even at 4K 60p mode, you can record videos up to unlimited time.
4. AI Powered Autofocus with BIONZ XR
AI powered autofocus: The upcoming camera with BIONZ XR image processor will have the latest generation of AI algorithm inside it.
So users will experience next level of auto focusing performance as well as subject tracking.
5. 4K 60 FPS Video in Super 35mm Mode (1.5x Crop)
4K 60 FPS video in Super 35 mm mode: Super 35 mm mode at 4K 60p sounds fascinating, but that’s not a good thing — that’s actually a limit masked under a good name.
As we usually know, the Sony 33 MP sensor has its own readout limitations. That’s why the 4K 60p is limited to 1.5X crop. But at the very same time, I think that Sony can easily put uncropped 60p in the camera with pixel binning or line skipping algorithm if they wish to.
6. 32-bit Float Audio Support via XLR
32 bit float audio: 32 bit float audio support is available via XLR input. So for professional filmmakers and cinematographers, that’s a great thing to have in their camera.
7. Mechanical Shutter for Still Photography
Mechanical shutter: It’s good to see that Sony is still preserving mechanical shutter inside their camera.
8. Compact, Robust Design with a Unique Look
Compact robust design: As per the initial report, the FX2 is slightly thicker than the FX3 camera. Also, it includes a kind of a tilting EVF, so it looks quite different than the conventional FX series box-style cameras.
Sony FX2 Camera Price
The price of Sony FX2 camera: Sony FX2 camera is priced at $3000 without any tariff, so potentially it may rise up to $3500 depending upon its manufacturing location and additional taxes.
Sony FX2 Release Date
The arrival date of Sony FX2 camera: The Sony FX2 camera official announcement is about to happen on May 28, 2025. We will confirm more about its pricing and availability details.
Stay tuned, more updates are coming

According to the latest Sony camera announcement rumor coming from the rumor mill, Sony is preparing for its next announcement on May 21, 2025
Any previous post the human male has mentioned, the upcoming camera will have a tilting viewfinder just like we have seen in the Panasonic GX9 camera. That’s a great thing, that’s a great initiative if Sony is taking so, but mainly we would love to see some kind of changes or better to say major enhancements in the core specifications of the upcoming camera, for the upcoming Sony mirrorless camera updates.

According to the latest rumors, Panasonic is about to announce a new FX8 camera at May 28, 2025. The Camera will feature the same sensor as we have seen in the Sony A7 IV camera., The best part is that being a cinema camera, it will have a built-in fan to support longer recording without any overheating issues .
Right now, we do not have any leaks from the rumor mill, and I don’t want to make any predictions over that, so it’s better to just have a plain sheet of Sony announced cameras in the past 3 years, and let’s just talk about their predicted scheduled update of Sony upcoming cameras 2025 and beyond

Arrival on May 28, 2025 Confimred
Sony A7S IV Camera – highly anticipated
If Sony wants to keep everything in sequence, then the next update should be the Sony A7S IV. The Sony A7S IV is long due for an update, and it was a highly popular camera among Alpha series users. Despite that fact, Sony has delayed the update of the A7S series for no reason, so if they move on their own schedule pattern of announcement, as we have sai,d the Sony A7S IV should be next.
Sony A7R VI with modest update?
Sony A7RV was a massive update from A7R IV. They used a Stacked CMOS sensor in A7R V, a new AI AF algorithm from the flagship series cameras, and an enhanced video core specification. Unfortunately, none of the competitors, including Canon and Nikon, use a 61MP stacked or non-stacked CMOS sensor in their models; hence, in the absence of a true competitor, we may see a modest or subtle update from the camera maker.
Sony A7V Before September 2025
People are eagerly awaiting the Sony A7V camera, with as per the latest Sony A7V rumors, we have it will arrive on or before September 2025. The camera is poised to compete with the Nikon Z6 III, but Sony is strategically holding back the Sony A7V from a full launch. They are reportedly waiting to analyze the final core specifications of the Canon EOS R6 Mark III before officially announcing the Sony A7V release date in 2025.
Finally, the RX Series Compacts
We would love to see, and Sony should continue as the global market share of premium compact cameras is rising, but at the same time,e we have no information related to RX series compacts as of now.

But the new FX3 updated model will have a higher price (approx $4500), due to the new tariff rule implemented in the USA.

This is bigger and exciting news, and according to the rumour mill, it’s a completely new kind of camera that borrows “1 aspect” from the Sony Alpha series.
