Shoot in low light with Exmor R(tm) CMOS Sensor

Faithfully reproduce every aspect of the scene, even in low light. The Exmor R®(tm) CMOS sensor’s distinct design puts wiring behind the light-capturing photo sites for vastly improved sensitivity and reduced noise. Combined with higher-speed parallel signal processing and more rapid signal conversion, images have a wider dynamic range and rich gradations for intense detail and clarity.

Sharp, ultra-wide 170° ZEISS® Vario-Tessar® lens

Capture epic wide angle views with the 170˚ ZEISS® Vario-Tessar® lens. Or switch to a more conventional 120˚ view. Either way, leveraging over 150 years of experience in precision optics, the ZEISS® lens gives your recordings intense contrast and sharpness, free from glare and reflection thanks to an advanced multi-layer coating.

Full HD recording at 60 p / 50 p and 28 Mbps

These impressive stats ensure you have plenty of creative options: get up to Full HD resolution and 28 Mbps video bitrates, and frame rates from 50 p all the way to 240 p super-slow motion.

Shake-free home movies with SteadyShot

Shoot on the fly without shakes and bumps. Electronic SteadyShot image stabilization works inside the camera to combat camera shake, whether shooting in wide angle or full telephoto. Motion sensors detect hand shake and other camera movement, which electronic SteadyShot then compensates for with a dedicated buffer area on the sensor.

Slim, light design with easy-access controls

The slender design—subject to less wind and water pressure—is ideal for virtually all outdoor activities. Furthermore, the slim profile hugs your helmet (or bike, or other gear), so is less likely to get bumped out of alignment the way the bulky design of other brands might. Simple buttons make operation easy, even while wearing gloves.

HDMI® output for easy large-screen TV viewing

Effortlessly share new photos or videos with friends and family on your large-screen HDTV (required HDMI cable purchased separately).
