Get closer to your subject: 10x optical zoom plus 12x extended zoom in 3D (17x in 2D) takes you right into the heart of the action.

Film in low light: Two Exmor® R CMOS sensors capture detailed Full HD 3D video and 2D stills with reduced image noise, even in low light.

Shoot steady on the move: Optical SteadyShot Active Mode delivers 3-way camera shake correction at all zoom settings, even when you’re walking.

Capture a film-like look: In 25p progressive mode you can film Full HD images at 25 frames per second, creating that classic movie look.

Take photos as well as video: Take 2D still images with 20.4 megapixel resolution and capture stills from video footage too.

Handy charging and connections: The USB cable stores neatly inside the Handycam®, always ready to connect to a computer, transfer videos and recharge the battery.

Just point and shoot, without adjusting settings: iAuto automatically adjusts settings for the best results, recognising different faces, lighting and scenes such as landscapes.

Pick out the smiles in every scene: With Face Detection and Smile Shutter, you can automatically capture still photos of smiling faces while recording video.
