Compact pocket-sized camera with 20x optical zoom


Capture 18.2 megapixel detail, even in low light: Shoot detail-packed stills and movies, even indoors or in dim light, with the 18.2 effective megapixels Exmor R™ CMOS sensor.

Easy sharing with Wi-Fi: Send photos and videos straight to a smartphone or tablet; back-up shots wirelessly to you PC, or view on your connected TV.

Shutter in your pocket: Use your phone as a handy remote to control the camera via Wi-Fi; it’s great when you don’t want to be left out of the scene.

Ready to shoot, near or far: Ideal for travel, the high-quality G Lens with 20x optical zoom handles wide-angle landscapes, portraits and dramatic close-ups.

Lock on fast even for telephoto shots: Frame your subject quickly with fast autofocus which brings everything sharply into focus even when taking photos from distance.

Get a wider view: Make sure nothing’s left out of the picture: the wide angle lens packs more into holiday scenes, interiors and group shots.

Add artistic picture effects: Add up to 9 different creative effects to stills, movies and panoramas without having to download and use image-editing software.

Don’t leave it to guesswork: Intelligent Auto recognises a wide range of scenes and adjusts settings automatically so you can get detailed results every time.

Capture action with no blur: Superior Auto recognises when subjects are moving in your picture and automatically adjusts settings for crisp, blur-free results.

Shoot smooth, steady Full HD movies: Film smooth, steady video clips in Full HD, even when you’re walking or zooming, with Optical SteadyShot Active Mode.

Get clear close-ups: Powerful 40x Clear Image Zoom really fills the frame, even with distant subjects, so your shots always stay clear and detail-packed.

Focus on the moment: Speedy, precise autofocus locks onto your subject for pin-sharp results, even in low light or when you’re zoomed right in.

Shoot high quality pictures quickly: The BIONZ processor is key to high-speed continuous shooting at 10 frames per second and finely detailed image quality.

Don’t worry about unsteady hands: Take crisp, blur-free still photos with Optical SteadyShot that cuts handheld wobbles when you’re zoomed in or don’t have a tripod.

See detail in the dark: Use Extra High Sensitivity mode to capture crisp detail in the dimmest conditions like dusk or candlelight.

See photos clearly on-screen: See shots on a high-resolution 7.5cm (3.0”) Clear Photo LCD screen that automatically adjusts brightness for sunshine or dull days.

All the colour you’ve dreamed of: Triluminos Colour gives a rich, vivid palette of natural colours when viewing photos on a compatible TV from Sony.

Flatter your portrait subject: Let the camera automatically remove skin blemishes, brighten teeth, widen eyes and cut forehead shine when you capture portraits.

Capture full panoramas with movement and faces: Just press the shutter button and sweep the camera for extra-wide panoramas of landscapes, city scenes and packed parties.

Keep shooting all day: With up to 500 shots from a single battery charge, you’ve got plenty of stamina to capture the fun times and special photo moments.
