Superb quality Full HD images
Experience incredible imaging performance, with up to 6.5 hours Full HD recording on 16GB internal memory and more on optional memory card. Beautifully designed with advanced optical technologies and smart features to capture beautiful, detail-packed video and stills.

Low light, no problem
Many camcorders struggle in low light, producing grainy, fuzzy images. Super sensitive Exmor R™ CMOS Sensor reduces image noise for clearer images. In conjunction with the powerful BIONZ processor you’ll get great results in low light, dim interiors or at dusk.

Pack more into every scene
Now you can make sure nobody’s left out of the picture at parties, birthdays and other special occasions. The high quality G Lens by Sony inside Handycam® now features enhanced wide angle performance, capturing up to 2x greater image area than previous models.

Walk. Zoom. Steady: Even more stable pictures
Wobbly pictures are a common problem when you’re shooting without a tripod. New Optical SteadyShot Active Mode delivers best-ever ‘3-way’ camera shake correction at all zoom settings, even when you’re walking along. In wide angle position, you’ll enjoy up to ten times improved anti-shake performance.

Quicker, more accurate autofocus
AF performance is now 2x faster than previous models for rapid, pin-sharp focus - even when you're shooting in low light.

Catch the moment
New Golf Shot captures a high-speed burst of frames. It's a great way to improve your swing… or freeze the details in any kind of fast-moving action.
