Rapid AF response to capture decisive moments
Fast Intelligent AF achieves very speedy, accurate contrast-detection autofocus by minimising lens motion, predicting suitable AF range and accelerating lens drive, thereby improving response so you can capture more fleeting moments.
Up to 26.8 mm wide-angle lens
Whether you’re shooting movies or still images, the class-leading wide-angle lens can help you capture more of landscapes and indoor scenes, when you don’t have enough room to step back. Even without a wide conversion lens, the camcorder shoots as wide as 26.8 mm (16:9 aspect ratio) in movie mode.
Time-lapse Capture
You can capture still images continuously over an extensive period of time at a selected constant interval from each shot to the next, edit the entire sequence of still images in post-production and enjoy playback of that series of images as a time-lapse movie.
Dual Video Recording
Record two movies at the same time — one in the maximum-quality XAVC S or AVCHD format and another in MP4 format. That way you’ve got a small file ready for instant sharing plus a professional-grade file for further editing.
Highlight Movie Maker
A versatile function to streamline movie editing, Highlight Movie Maker offers several time-saving features. Add highlight points to key moments while recording and let the camcorder automatically sync movie transitions to your chosen soundtrack.
Motion Shot Video
Motion Shot Video plays a sequence of superimposed images that trace recorded action in split-second intervals for you to analyse in detail on the LCD screen. During playback, you can adjust the interval or pause to capture and share a still image.
High image quality
The high-bitrate XAVC S format is for videographers ready to take their work to the next level. Delivering high quality, XAVC S is built from the XAVC format used by professional filmmakers and broadcasters, while employing intelligent data compression to export consumer-friendly file sizes
5.1 ch surround sound microphone
Record clear sound that accurately captures the atmosphere of the scene and enjoy surround sound playback on your home theatre system. Level metres on the LCD panel provide visual monitoring of each channel’s levels.
30 x optical zoom
With a wide-angle lens that is ideal for capturing grand landscapes, the camera also provides 30 x optical zoom and up to 60 x Clear Image Zoom for versatile image options.
One-touch remote and One-touch sharing
One-touch remote lets you use your smartphone or tablet as a viewfinder and remote control for a digital camera and One-touch sharing lets you transfer your photos and videos from your camera. No NFC? No problem. You can also pair the devices manually.
