SUMMARY
A new report suggests Sony will announce the FX5 camera in July, equipped with a global shutter sensor and features from the professional Venice line. This model is described as a "mini Venice" rather than a typical Alpha camera, with a button and menu layout mirroring the professional Venice. The FX5 is expected to offer modularity for cinema peripherals and may introduce open gate video recording, potentially disrupting Sony's cinema camera lineup.
