Sony today announced an global competition for filmmakers with one lucky winner to get its brand new PXW-FS5 camera for their work.
The compact new PXW-FS5 provides unsurpassed on-the-go shooting with stunning 4K image quality, in even the most demanding of conditions. The camera weighs only 0.8kg, with an ergonomic weight balance to ensure comfortable and reliable handheld shooting. The PXW-FS5 allows filmmakers to push their work to the next level, with a truly adaptable design that allows multiple shooting angles, modification, and even mounting on a drone. Sony has built the PXW-FS5 with creative flexibility at the top of the agenda – eradicating limits to shoot any style, any angle, anywhere.
In this global competition, entrants are invited to submit a two-minute film under the theme of “No More Limits”, which will be scored on creativity and uniqueness as well as the difficulty level of the shots captured.
Eligible submissions should be uploaded to YouTube and entered on the Sony Professional website by 31st October. The videos which receive the most YouTube ‘likes’ from the 1st-15th November will form regional shortlists, with Sony Independent Certified Experts selecting their favourites as part of an exclusive webinar in early December.
These regional finalists will each win a Sony a7s, and will be entered into the global final to win the PXW-FS5. The grand winner will also be announced during the webinar.
