Sony HDR-CX560E HD Flash Memory PAL Camcorder

The Sony HDR-CX560E HD Flash Memory PAL Camcorder is a full 1080/50p HD cam designed to take your recording beyond the norm. On top of the 26 hours of HD storage afforded by its 64GB internal flash memory, the CX560E includes Sony's Cinematone presets and 25p recording, which give your video a film-like look and feel.

The CX560E offers an impressive lineup of core features, from the wide angle G lens and Optical SteadyShot image stabilization, to the 3.0" touch panel LCD with TruBlack technology for higher contrast. There's also a 14x extended zoom to help you get closer to the action while maintaining image integrity.

Sony also gave the CX560E some high-class audio features. The built-in 5.1 channel surround sound microphone, for instance, helps capture all encompassing sound without an external mic. And should you want to use an external mic, the camera has both a stereo mini microphone and headphone connection. Other audio features include wind noise reduction and Clear Phase stereo speakers.

The CX560E's numerous shooting controls are designed to make your recording experience an easier one. And while there are a number of ways to make your video your own, when you want to stop worrying about camera settings and simply hit Record, features like Intelligent Auto let you do just that--without compromising image quality.
