Your story. In 4K detail.
A giant step forward with 4K resolution: Capture scenes with four times the detail of Full HD, for realism that's beyond anything you’ve experienced before.
See every scene come alive: Shoot detail-packed video with a pro-grade image processor delivering 3840x2160 resolution.
Keeps everything smooth and sharp: Record 50p movies at full resolution for ultra defined footage, even when panning or shooting moving subjects.
From panoramas to close-ups: Take a variety of shots with a high quality Sony G lens, offering a broad range from wide-angle to 20x optical zoom.
Inspired by professionals: Records 4K and HD movies in XAVC S, compressing files to capture more footage than the professional XAVC format.
One cable is all you need: Connect up to your 4K TV using a single HDMI cable and enjoy the razor sharp detail of 4K with over 8 million pixels on screen.
Shoot high quality HD at 50Mbps: With XAVC S you can record in high quality Full HD at 50Mbps, enhancing detail with sharper definition and richer colours.
See more vivid, lifelike colours: Watch your movie on a Triluminos display and see truer colours, particularly reds, greens, and blues, and natural skin tones too.
High speed record and play: Two XQD™ card slots give you all you need to shoot and enjoy 4K video at speed, with relay recording for switching between media.
Boost your soundtrack: Connect up pro-grade microphones to the XLR terminals and record movies in superior audio quality.
Manual zoom and focus: Independent zoom, focus, and iris rings enable fast zooming, swift focusing, and easy focus adjustment.
Control your light: Choose from three ND filters, for adjusting the amount of light entering the image sensor from the lens, and four filter settings.
Fine tune for bright days: When recording in bright conditions, adjust the gain to negative values for optimum gain setting and reduced noise.
Go for a cinematic look: Create your own movie style by combining up to five paint functions – white balance, gamma, detail, skin detail, and matrix.
Quickly access functions: Allocate your favourite functions to one of 7 ASSIGN buttons for rapid one touch access, no menus required.
Start, stop: all so easy: There are start/stop buttons on the side of the grip and on the handle, which also features a zoom button for extra convenience.
Steer clear of excessive brightness: During recording, a Zebra function highlights overly bright areas with stripes in the LCD and viewfinder so avoiding whiteouts.
Highlights areas in sharp focus: Peaking makes it easier to spot where the shot is in focus so you can adjust levels and choose the right peaking for your shot.
Centre your image: Easily see the centre of your shot at a glance with a handy centre marker in the LCD or viewfinder.
Fine tune colour: Select from four types of colour bars to aid colour adjustment when playing images on a TV or monitor.
