The FS5-II can handle 60 fps high-framerate 4K recording, shoot 4K at 120 fps in four-second bursts, and output 240 fps 1080p for eight seconds. Internally, it can capture 8-bit 4K at 30fps, or HD at up to 120 fps. Atomos also announced that its Shogun Inferno 7-inch monitor/recorder supports the FS5-II. That means many production pros can use it to capture RAW 4K using Apple's new ProRes RAW format. The FS5 II also packs new color science that improves skin tones, a common complaint about the last model.

As News Shooter notes, most of the features, apart from 120 fps internal HD recording, came to the previous model via (paid) firmware updates. Unlike Panasonic with the GH5 and GH5s, Sony avoids putting features like 10-bit internal recording on its A7 lineup to avoid cannibalizing its pricey professional products.

Sony also launched a pair of smaller camcorders. The PXW-Z280 uses three half-inch CMOS sensors, and can record 4:2:2 10-bit 4K at 60 fps, while the PXW-Z190 uses three 1/3-inch chips and can also handle 4:2:2 10-bit 4K video.

Update: The headline body originally stated that the camera was "Netflix-friendly," but Sony was referring to the previous model when it said that. The post has been updated to remove that reference.
