Sony har i dag annonceret lanceringen af to nye eksterne controllere med integreret kamerastyring og overvågning, DP7 og DP5, der er designet til brug sammen med Sonys Cinema Line-serie af kameraer til videoproduktion. Ved lanceringen vil de være kompatible med FX5, FX3, FX2 og FX30*¹.

Ved at give brugerne mulighed for at kontrollere og justere indstillingerne, selv når de befinder sig væk fra kameraet, bidrager produkterne til at strømline optagelserne for enkeltoperatører og små produktionshold. Med pålidelig betjening via fysiske knapper, kontrolknap og multifunktionshjul, kablet tilslutning, nøjagtig farvegengivelse og et robust design understøtter controllerne de stadig mere forskelligartede behov i videoproduktionsmiljøer. Med udvalgte kompatible sendere understøtter controllerne desuden trådløs forbindelse*².

_{*1 Kompatibilitet med FX6 og BURANO vil blive tilføjet i en kommende firmwareopdatering i anden halvdel af 2027.}

Sony Launches New Controllers Integrating Camera Control and Monitoring for Cinema Line

Streamlining video production workflows with intuitive operation and versatile shooting support functions, from small-scale productions to professional sets

Sony today announced the launch of two new external controllers integrating camera control and monitoring, the “DP7” and “DP5,” designed for use with Sony’s Cinema Line range of cameras for video production. At the time of release, they will be compatible with the FX5, FX3, FX2, and FX30^*1.

By enabling users to check and adjust settings even when positioned away from the camera, the products help streamline shooting for solo operators and small production teams. With reliable operation through physical buttons, control knob and multi-function dials, wired connectivity, accurate color reproduction, and a robust design, the controllers support the increasingly diverse needs of video production environments. With select compatible transmitters, the controllers can also support a wireless connection^*2.

_{*1 Compatibility with FX6 and BURANO will be added in a future firmware update in the second half of 2027.}

_{*2 As of this announcement, we plan to support “Hollyland Pyro Ultra” and “Teradek Bolt 7”. For details, please contact the respective manufacturers.}

Main Features of the “DP7” and “DP5”

1. Integrated camera control and monitoring in a single device to enhance mobility for small production teams

Equipped with the “BIG6” home screen, the controllers allow users to adjust focus when used with compatible autofocus lenses, zoom when used with compatible power zoom lenses, as well as exposure and other key settings from the monitor side even when away from the camera.

In addition to touch operation, control knob, multi-function dials and assignable buttons provide quick access to frequently used functions on set, supporting fast, intuitive adjustments in compact shooting setups.

This enables quick adjustments during shooting and helps create an environment where operators can focus more easily on composition and direction, even with limited crew members.

2. High-quality, accurate color reproduction supports image capture from shooting through post-production

Featuring Sony’s professional video monitor-grade color calibration technology, each unit is individually calibrated at the factory and continuously compensates for chromaticity color temperature drift during operation, delivering reliable color accuracy in the field. A high-brightness Full HD panel with up to 2,000 cd/m² ^*3 brightness, together with support for 6 presets and up to 16 LUTs^*4, enables users to view an image as close as possible to the intended final look.

_{*3 This is typical value for D65 (x, y = 0.3127, 0.329) and is not guaranteed value.}

_{*4 Compatible with 17 and 33-grid CUBE files (.cube).}

3. Flexible support for wired and wireless^*2 connections to suit a variety of shooting styles

Support for HDMI input and output enables stable monitoring through a wired connection. The products also support wireless^*2 connection with select compatible third-party transmitters, allowing flexible operation according to camera placement and rig configuration. In addition, “DP7” supports 12G-SDI connection and bidirectional conversion between SDI and HDMI connections.

4. Robust design and power options for use in video production environments

With a highly rigid aluminum body and a design that takes dust and moisture resistance into consideration, the controllers are built for use in outdoor production environments. Both models support multiple power supply options, including BP-U series battery, USB Power Delivery (PD), and DC input^*4, enabling flexible operation for long-duration shoots and varied equipment configurations.

_{*4 DC input is supported only by the “DP7”.}
