Carl Zeiss® Vario-Tessar Lens
High-contrast Carl Zeiss® Vario-Tessar originally design from Germany are world-renowned for delivering quality images. It delivers uncompromised, accurately detailed and realistic photos with excellent contrast.

Quick AF - Focus Twice as Fast
A new and improved autofocus (AF) system, Quick AF, allows you to focus twice as fast as previous models. Amazingly, this is possible whether in bright daylight or in dimly lit environments. Thanks to the much improved AF algorithm in Quick AF, you can be assured of fast, accurate, and consistent focus lock even when shooting night scenes!

Record Any Scene Perfectly With Sony's Intelligent Auto (iAuto)
Unlike simple auto mode, iAUTO mode does the thinking for you. It recognises your surroundings and automatically adjusts settings for the best filming results. iAUTO selects from 90 possible settings then uses clever technologies to optimise for faces, smiles, low-light levels, different scenes (beach, snow, sports, etc.) or anti-shake adjustment.

Direct Copy & Playback
With direct copy, you can take lots of video and back them up just by simply connecting your Handycam® to an external hard disk drive via a USB adapter.
Furthermore, you can use various playback modes such as Visual Index, Date Index, or even Highlight Playback to view the videos.
