Sony FR7 Cinema Line PTZ Camera
Create full-frame footage for broadcast, reality shows, houses of worship, live events, and sports with the Sony FR7 Cinema Line PTZ camera. This versatile camera features the unique ability to use interchangeable Sony E-mount lenses and is currently compatible with 70 E-mount lenses ranging from 12 to 1200mm. The large image sensor offers 15+ stops of dynamic range, captures up to UHD 4K120 video, offers live streaming, supports S-Cinetone, Cine EI, and MLUT looks to match other Sony cameras, and allows you to create shallow depth of field bokeh effects.
Expressive 4K images
Full frame sensor
The Sony FR7 combines a 4K full-frame sensor and compatibility with Sony E-mount lenses for extraordinarily expressive, cinematic images.
Dynamic range of over 15 stops and a base ISO of 800 that can be expanded from 12,800 to 409,600 for capturing optimal video in a variety of lighting conditions.
Sony E-mount
Compatible with 70 different Sony E-mount lenses covering a range of 12 to 1200.
This allows you to capture the widest vistas and the smallest details.
Use with G Master (GM) lenses for impressive resolution and beautiful bokeh.
Image processing functions
Capture rich detail and color with Sony S-Log3 and create nuanced contrast with Hybrid Log Gamma (HLG).
Built-in ND filters.
An integrated electronic ND filter provides variable ND filtration from 1/4 (2 stops) to 1/128 (7 stops).
Use the ND filter to compensate for changes in exposure without affecting your depth of field.
Create shallow depth of field effects by adding the ND and opening the iris.
SDI Raw output
The FR7 can output raw video via its SDI (BNC) output to an external recorder for color correction and other post-production tweaking.
UHD 4K 120p recording
Record UHD 4K video at speeds up to 120 fps for slow-motion effects.
Remote functions
IP control.
Use the IP protocols to control your camera remotely, such as from an OB van, and/or to control multiple cameras.
