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.

Control up to five cameras with Live View Remote

Using the optional RM-LVR1 Live View Remote accessory you can control up to five cameras via Wi-Fi right from your wrist. Frame your shots, control the cameras’ recording settings, and start/stop recording to get impressive footage from five sources simultaneously.

Shake-free home movies with SteadyShot

Shoot on the fly without shakes and bumps. Electronic SteadyShot image stabilisation 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.

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

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

4-video editing with Video Merge

Video Merge lets you combine up to four movie footage segments (even slow-motion parts) captured simultaneously by different cameras, and make a split-screen composite. With this unique feature anyone can create impressive movies without mastering complex editing software. Available in PlayMemories Home.

Video flip feature

Upside-down Flip function is especially useful when the Action Cam is shooting from an inverted position. Select a special setting prior to operation so the camera will capture footage in standard orientation.

Built-In stereo mic captures quality sound

Make a great movie better with great sound; built-in stereo microphone allows you to capture all the natural sounds of your adventure.

Photo mode option

Add more tools to your creative array without adding one more piece of equipment. This video camera also lets you take amazing high-quality single images--as easily as you would with a camera. Furthermore, the burst and timelapse modes lets you effortlessly capture a sequence of images; use them to great effect in a video, or choose your favorite still.

Wi-Fi for remote control and easier camera aiming

It's hard to get great selfies or videos with you in the heart of the action. With no viewfinder/screen, it's tough to know what you're really capturing. Seeing it live on your smartphone is the solution; Wi-Fi capability lets you turn your smartphone or tablet into a remote viewfinder and controller.

150-minute battery life

Whether you're skateboarding your favorite streets or biking a tough trail, don’t miss recording the action--long battery life lasts up to 150 minutes.

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.

Rugged waterproof housing with tripod mount

Sealed in the housing, the camera is waterproof down to 5m and has a shock resistance rating up to 2.5m drops. Additionally, dirt- and dust-resistant seals make it nearly impervious to mud, snow, rain, and grit. The Action Cam also feature a versatile embedded universal tripod mount.

Underwater mode for natural colors

Action Cam will take beautiful, natural color images even underwater. Simply set the underwater white balance before shooting to prevent a distorted greenish color, keeping water as “true blue” as it appears in real life.

Record YOUR way with dual memory formats

Expandable memory with Memory Stick Micro™ and Micro SD/SDHC card slot; conveniently use whichever format you have on hand.

HDMI® output for easy large-screen TV viewing
