Sony has added a new model to its range of 35mm camcorders with the launch of the FS7II.

Sony said the model builds on its FS7 device and suggested that those shooting long-form documentaries and independent films as potential users of the camera.

Features which are new to the FS7II include Electronic Variable ND technology, a lever lock type E-mount, and a new mechanical design which Sony said would result in faster and easier set-up. It can also record in the BT2020 colour space.

The FS7, which was introduced in 2014, will continue to be sold by Sony.
