- • Advanced HAD CCD
- Advanced (Hole Accumulation Diode) CCD provides great detail and clarity with video (up to 500 lines of horizontal resolution) performance.
- • Mini DV Recording
- Mini DV recording is the preferred format for personal and broadcast quality video, highly regarded for its high audio and image quality. With up to 500 lines of horizontal resolution.
- • Professional Quality Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar Lens
- Uses an advanced optical multi-layer coating that offers less glare and flare with increased contrast. This results in vivid image brilliance, true-to-life color saturation and perfect renditions of subtle tones.
- • Easy Handycam Button
- Using a camcorder can be intimidating for some people, so with a press of the Easy Handycam button, most of the advanced functions of the camcorder are locked out leaving only the buttons essential for recording operational.
- • NightShot Plus Infrared System
- With Sony's NightShot Infrared System, you can capture natural looking video, even when shooting in low light. Record subjects up to 20 feet away using the built-in infrared system.
- • Super SteadyShot
- Picture stabilization system that uses motion sensors to detect and compensate for camera shake without compromising picture quality like some other digital stabilization systems.
- • Zoom
- The 20x optical zoom helps to bring the action close up from far away. In addition, the Digital Zoom Interpolation means that extreme digital zooming is clearer, with less distortion than previous types of digital zooms.
- • Program AE (Auto Exposure) Modes
- Program AE modes make recording easy even when filming in challenging situations. Choose from Portrait, Beach & Ski, Sports Lesson, Landscape, Spotlight, Sunset & Moon modes.
- • Picture Effects
- Get creative when recording or playing back your videos with Picture Effect Modes. Effects available in Camera mode: Negative Art, Sepia, Monotone, Solarize, Pastel and Mosaic. Effects available in Playback mode: Negative Art, Sepia, Monotone and Solarize.
- • PicturePackage Software
- Easily organize still images and video, and turn them into stunning music videos using the supplied software.
- • Battery Information
- At the touch of a button, battery information is displayed on the LCD screen when charging and when the camcorder is turned off. The display will show how much the battery is charged, in 10 percent increments and the recordable time left when using the LCD screen or in the viewfinder.
