Sources: Sony firmware update / Sony RAW upgrade There are no regular framerates available for the 2k mode, though. And if 2K is fine for you, in this mode you can speed things up to 240fps. If you need even more, however, there is 4 sec burst mode at 4K RAW 120 fps. With the RAW module enabled, you can record 4K (4096×2160) at up to 60fps externally. Remember, you will need a decent external raw recorder (the Atomos Shogun Inferno or the Convergent Design Odyssey7Q+ for example).

All you need is the paid upgrade which comes with a software key and will set you back $600. If you want to get even better image quality from your Sony FS5, you’re in luck - the RAW mode is now supported, too.

Also, the previously announced GPS functionality is now being enabled. It’s also nice being able to select the audio channel which you want to listen to through your headphones. The ability to adjust the zebra levels in 1% increments is a very useful and much-needed update. You can now acquire and record position information when shooting using the GPS function.You can now select the audio that is output in the headphones.Also, the level settings can now be adjusted in 1% increments. The zebra function has been enhanced, allowing you to select two types of setting.(“ CBKZ-FS5RIF”, sold separately, is required)

Shooting and recording in RAW mode are now supported.

The ND filter density can now be adjusted automatically.

The Auto ND feature is not the only one, of course. Neat, especially if you are working with photo lenses lacking a de-clicked iris ring. The variable ND can then be used to dial in the correct amount of ND to achieve the proper exposure - without affecting the optical characteristics of the image. There’s a lot of potential, for sure! With the combination of Auto ND and Auto Iris, you could achieve beautiful day to night transitions without getting into trouble because of fixed ND filters, too.Īnother way of using the variable ND can be to work with a fixed aperture and fixed ISO to create a consistent look and feel to your footage. Imagine a smooth transition between the two frames.Ī seamless transition from deep focus to a shallow depth of field within one take is something I haven’t seen before.
