Sony HDR-CX130E Full HD Flash Memory PAL Camcorder (Blue)
- No Longer Available
This is a PAL camera. It is not compatible with USA/NTSC TV systems.
The Sony HDR-CX130E Full HD Flash Memory PAL Camcorder puts full 1920 x 1080p high-definition recording at your fingertips, complete with a range of useful features and functions. Storing everything you record onto handy SD/SDHC/SDXC memory cards or Sony's proprietary Memory Stick media, the camera demonstrates a remarkable ability to capture brilliant HD video and stills, even in low light.
A wide angle Sony G lens (with 42x extended zoom) and sensitive 'Exmor R' CMOS sensor make two important contributions to the quality of the 50p and 50i footage. At the same time, a 3.0" touch screen LCD supplies a generous platform on which to compose and review your shots. It also rotates up to 270°, allowing for shooting from difficult angles.
A slew of other features is available to help capture your memories. Shooting controls such as Intelligent Auto take the guesswork out of recording by automatically setting the camera to the right combination of scene modes. Features like Tracking Focus allow you to set the camera to focus on a selected subject. And Golf Shot mode captures a few seconds of motion in up to 22 still images, allowing for a detailed breakdown of the event.
Of course when the shooting's over, the work isn't quite done--which is why Sony provides editing software with the CX130E for making the most of your videos. And when your masterpiece has been polished, the software will help you upload it to the Web for sharing on sites like Facebook and YouTube.

- Back-Illuminated "Exmor R" CMOS Sensor for Superb Low-Light Video
- Experience stunning low-light sensitivity with improved image clarity and drastically reduced grain with Sony's back-illuminated "Exmor R" CMOS sensor. Designed for compact cameras and camcorders, the "Exmor R" sensor relocates the photo diodes above the support circuitry, maximizing the light gathering area per pixel so you can shoot with better results in lower lighting conditions.
- Optical SteadyShot Image Stabilization with Active Mode

The convenient touch panel allows easy access to menus and additional functionality such as spot focus and spot metering.
- Tracking Focus Follows Selected Subjected
- Tracking Focus works as an extension of Face Detection to allow you to select an object with a touch of the LCD and have the focus follow the selected object.
- Event Browse Groups Photos/Videos
- Event Browse conveniently groups your images and videos together for easier viewing. The date range that Event Browse groups your pictures and videos is easily adjusted to suit your needs. When used with the Highlight Playback feature, making and sharing a highlight reel from your event is easy and fun.
- Highlight Playback Creates Movies with Transitions for You
- Why spend hours editing your movies when you can let your camcorder do it for you? Highlight Playback identifies and compiles key scenes into a short, entertaining movie complete with music and transitions. You can even pinpoint the exact scene you want to include in the highlight reel.
- Wind Noise Reduction for Clear Voice Recording
- Wind Reduction reduces noise and interference that is produced when wind passes over the microphone, giving you a clearer and more enjoyable sound experience.
- Intelligent Auto - 90 Different Scene Combinations Possible

- Direct Copy to External HDD without PC
- Store your memories in a whole new way with the ability to copy videos from your camcorder directly to an external hard disk drive (sold separately), all without a computer.
