Zoom with clarity



50x optical zoom

Distance is no issue. Pull everything closer with huge 50x optical zoom – for pin-sharp clarity in every frame.







Optical SteadyShot

The lens moves gyroscopically and compensates for movements caused by handheld shooting, for amazingly sharp pictures across the focal range.






Track the action

Never lose sight of the perfect shot. Lock-on autofocus automatically adjusts frame size based on the characteristics of your subject for clear and defined results.



Handles like a pro

Get the feel and look of a DSLR with easy-to-use controls and an ergonomic grip. Buttons and features are carefully placed and easy to reach, just like a professional camera.


Mode dial

With the mode dial, you can select aperture or shutter priority. A handy control dial for your thumb gives you quick and simple manual control over whichever mode you’ve selected.




LCD Screen

See images appear bright and clear on a 921k-dot resolution Xtra Fine LCD WhiteMagic™ 3 in (7.5 cm) display.















Multi interface shoe

Attach a range of accessories to your camera, like external flashes, studio microphones, and more. The hotshoe powers these fixings to enhance your shooting.




















Electronic viewfinder

Take the guesswork out of composing shots. A 201-dot resolution electronic viewfinder gives you a clear, real-time preview with 100% frame coverage – ideal for framing, focusing, and reviewing shots. A built-in eye-sensor automatically switches you between the LCD display and the viewfinder.



Unleash your inner director

Give your home movies the cinematic treatment. Just hit the dedicated movie button to start shooting crisp, clear Full HD movies. Optical SteadyShot Intelligent Active Mode keeps your videos stable and shake-free, even when you’re walking or zooming.




Full HD

AVCHD

If you’re looking to get more serious with your shooting, try AVCHD progressive format for sharp, professional-looking footage.



See every trick and transition

A cool effect to show off jumps, tracks, and more with Motion Shot Video. Captured subject movement is displayed in a sequence of superimposed images on a single background.



Apps to evolve each shot

Get more creative with your shooting. PlayMemories Camera Apps adds more effects and settings to your camera, including time lapse, light shaft, multiple exposure, and more.


Create, connect, and share
