Face Detection

Every smile captured remain sharp and clear! Detail of every facial feature is perfected and optimal image quality is achieved by automatically matching the focus, exposure, and colour of your recording to your subject.

Smile Shutter

While shooting your original movie footage, Smile Shutter automatically detects and takes a photograph of your subject if he or she smiles. It’s a great way to record snapshots of smiling friends and family members!

GPS Tagging

GPS technology now allows you to search for the footage you want to playback, simply by touching the spot on the Touch Screen map where you shot it.

Optical Active SteadyShot

Many camcorders feature optical image stabilising systems but they often fall short when shooting wide angle or when you are on the move. New Optical Active SteadyShot smooths out the motion ten times more effectively than ordinary systems.

Highlight Playback

High capacity HDD Handycam models capture hours and hours of footage which can make editing a little daunting. But with the Highlight Playback feature your Handycam automatically creates an edited highlights package complete with a music soundtrack.

High Resolution Stills

Your flexible Handycam doubles up as a quality digital camera. It can take high resolution stills images too; and with selected models, can even do so while it’s still recording video.

Quality Optics

When it comes to the best possible digital imaging, ‘good glass’ is critical. Only Handycam uses premium quality G Series lenses and legendary Carl Zeiss lenses for uncompromising image capture.

"Exmor R" CMOS sensor

Featuring a back-illuminated design that maximise and efficiently utlises the amount of light received. The result is reduced noise, smoother action sequences, and higher image quality, especially in low-light conditions.

Dolby® Digital 5.1 Creator

Capture audio from all directions and encode it in real-time to create 5.1ch. Surround Sound. This means you can sit back and let Sony’s Handycam® camcorders deliver a cinematic theatre experience right in the comfort of your living room.
