I have waiting for this camera for several months, anyone got some solid rumors about the release date ?
Currently, just rumors on the web, no reliable release date info yet. My guess is in late 2024 to early 2025.
Q3 of 2024, I guess, based on latest rumors.
Just catching up on this thread and honestly, its worth thinking about your existing gear first. What specific features are you actually holding out for that the current model is missing for your workflow? In my experience, jumping on a brand new body often leads to a massive headache with compatibility. Over the years, I've tried many different setups and every time a mark II comes out, the dimensions shift slightly to accommodate better cooling or new ports. If you are already invested in something like the SmallRig Cage for Sony FX3 or specialized power solutions, there is a high chance they wont fit the new one. People forget that the Sony FX3 Cinema Line is built as a modular system, and even a 2mm difference in height means buying all new cages and plates. I've seen it happen too many times where the upgrade ends up costing way more than just the camera body because you're rebuilding your whole rig from scratch. Let me know what you're looking to gain and I might be able to suggest if the current model or maybe a different setup would actually suit you better right now.
I will get FX3 instead of waiting FX3 II, who knows when it will come out.
Been using this for years, no complaints
Could be released in the second half of 2024.
Why waiting for FX3 II ? What is the weak point of original FX3 ?
