Exquisite pictures with a sense of style
Capture stunning images with DSLR-like picture quality, plus the convenience of interchangeable lenses – all without the size and weight of a DSLR. Compact, beautifully styled and brilliantly easy to use, with amazing features like 3D Sweep Panorama and 1080i HD video shooting.

Extraordinary picture quality
It's all in the sensor. The extra-large Exmor™ APS HD CMOS sensor guarantees phenomenal imaging performance - just like a DSLR camera, but without the size and weight. You'll really see the difference with richly detailed, low-noise pictures, even in low light.

Amazing HD movies
Capture smoothly detailed Full HD videos with quick autofocus to track the action - even while you're zooming. Beautiful background defocus effects add an extra dimension to creative movie shooting.

Small enough to take everywhere
Enjoy DSLR picture quality and super-quick shooting responses in a light, ultra-compact camera. The sensationally styled body fits easily into a coat pocket or bag for day trips, weekends away or holidays.

Pick the perfect lens
Why compromise your artistic vision? Select from a choice of compact, beautifully styled E-mount lenses - from ultra-slim wide angle to powerful telephoto zoom. Or add an optional mount adaptor and enjoy the limitless possibilities of your A-mount lens collection.

Beautifully easy to use
Don't be intimidated by complicated buttons and menus. The camera is simplicity itself to operate, with an intuitive on-screen interface, control dial and soft keys. It's brilliantly easy to make one-handed adjustments of camera settings.
