Built for Professional Recording
Capture superb low-light shots with a Large MOS Sensor and Built-in LED Light, while maintaining stability with a shoulder-mount design. Pro-level functions, such as a Dual SD Card Slot & Manual Ring, also enhance your video recording performance.

Brilliant Videos in Low Light
The large 1/3.1-inch (1/3.1-type) MOS sensor captures brilliant, high-quality images in dim lighting conditions. That means you can record beautiful scenes and objects under a variety of conditions and in any situation, including indoor scenes and nightscapes, with low noise distortion.

Shoulder-Mount Design
Stable shoulder-mount shooting is packed into a well-balanced package with a large grip and zoom lever, plus a wide-diameter manual ring for smooth, positive operation. User buttons and switches are efficiently laid out for simple, direct control.

Picture Tone
Two picture quality settings can be easily made to match your preference. When you choose the Sharp setting instead of Standard, Gamma is compensated with high contrast, the Color Matrix is made more vibrant, and Sharpness is applied to enhance clarity for vivid images.

Built-in LED Light
The LED Light is extremely bright (300 lx at 1 meter) for reliable shooting in dimly lit places. A diffusion filter is also enclosed to diffuse and soften the light.

Dual SD Card Slot
Simultaneous Recording records the same data to both cards. When the first card reaches full capacity, Relay Recording automatically switches to the second card. The Hot Swap function allows the card to be exchanged while shooting, so recorded cards can be exchanged with blank cards for endless recording.

5-Axis HYBRID O.I.S.+
The HYBRID O.I.S.+ uses five-axis correction to thoroughly suppress blurring caused by unwanted shake – whether you are shooting with a wide angle or at high zoom. This lets you capture crisp, clear images in virtually every shooting situation.

Optical 20x Zoom
The optical 20x zoom lens covers the range from 29.5mm wide-angle* to 612mm tele by a 4-Drive Lens System. The drive ranges are reduced by driving each of four lens groups separately, resulting in high image quality and high-powered zooming, with a compact and quick lens mechanism.

3-inch touch LCD
This versatile LCD serves as a high-definition, 460K-dot monitor and menu-setting touch panel. It also rotates 270 degrees vertically for easy high-angle, low-angle and self-interview shooting.

Tiltable EVF
The 1,555K-dot-equivalent colour viewfinder (with eye cup) can be tilted for added convenience.
