Overview



Wide 24.5mm* and Optical 20x Zoom Lens
The lens covers the range from 24.5mm wide-angle to 490mm tele with a 20x zoom. i.ZOOM achieves 24x zoom with 4K resolution, and 32x zoom with FHD.

Versatile Recording Mode
Supports a high bit rate of 200 Mbps for 59.94p/50p video recording with HEVC (LongGOP/10 bit 4:2:0/MOV) codec. The Super Slow-motion function supports 10-bit recording in FHDCloseFull High Definition (FHD) is the resolution 1920x1080 Pixels at 120/100fps* and 4K (UHD) VFR from 2 to 60fps** for over-cranked and under-cranked shots to allow for highly creative video expression.

4K High-Precision AF
Face Detection precisely captures subjects on-site free from out of focus problems and insufficient exposure. Also, by adding color recognition, tracking subjects is improved, without interruption, when the face moves to either side.

5-Axis HYBRID O.I.S.+
In both UHD/FHD modes, in addition to Optical Image Stabilization, Electronic Image Stabilization detects and corrects handshake in the 5-axis direction. The Ball O.I.S. System reduces friction in the drive section, especially improving the correction of small-amplitude blurring.

4:2:2 10-bit Internal Recording
Records a 4:2:2 10-bit color profile of up to LongGOP UHDCloseUltra High Definition (UHD) is the resolution 3840x2160 pixels. What this means is that there are more pixels per inch (PPI) in a UHD display than a FHD (Full High Definition 1920x1080) display. This gives a higher resolution display 29.97p/25p (150 Mbps), or FHDCloseFull High Definition (FHD) is the resolution 1920x1080 Pixels 59.94p/50p (100 Mbps) with SD cards.

What this means is that there are more pixels per inch (PPI) in a UHD display than a FHD (Full High Definition 1920x1080) display. This gives a higher resolution display 59.94p/50p images via HDMI.

Full-HD Live Streaming
RTSP/RTP/RTMP/RTMPS-compatible HD streaming enables direct connection and distribution of relays for concerts, sports events, and news flashes to Facebook, YouTube, etc.

Wireless Control from a Tablet or Smartphone
A Wi-Fi module is built-in, so Wi-Fi connection of only the body is possible. Using a tablet or smartphone app HC ROP, wireless camera operations are also possible with live view image.

Image sensor
Optical sensor size:Optical sensors are electronic detectors that convert light, or a change in light, into an electronic signal. They are used in many industrial and consumer applications e.g. lamps that turn on automatically in response to darkness. Optical sensors come in many sizes.
25.4 / 0 mm (1 / 0")
Sensor type:A sensor is a convertor than measures a physical quality (light, temperature etc.) and displays this electronically on a device.
MOS
Total megapixels:A megapixel (MP or Mpx) is one million pixels, and is a term used not only for the number of pixels in an image, but also to express the number of image sensor elements of digital cameras or the number of display elements of digital displays. For example, a camera that makes a 2048 × 1536 pixel image typically uses a few extra rows and columns of sensor elements and is commonly said to have "3.2 megapixels" or "3.4 megapixels", depending on whether the number reported is the "effective" or the "total" pixel count (as opposed to the 2048 × 1536 = 3,145,728 finished image pixels).
15.03 MP

Lens system
Maximum focal length (35mm film equiv):The maximum 35mm equivalent focal length, which is a measure that indicates the angle of view of a particular combination of a camera lens and film or sensor size. The term is useful because most photographers experienced with interchangeable lenses are most familiar with the 35mm film format.
490 mm
Minimum focal length (35mm film equiv):The minimum 35mm equivalent focal length, which is a measure that indicates the angle of view of a particular combination of a camera lens and film or sensor size. The term is useful because most photographers experienced with interchangeable lenses are most familiar with the 35mm film format.
24.5 mm
Image stabilizer type:
Optical Image Stabilization (OIS)
Filter size:A filter is a screen, plate, or layer of a substance which absorbs light or other radiation or selectively absorbs some of its components e.g. a UV filter to reduce UV light. Filters come in various sizes.

Focal length (35mm film equivalent):
25 - 600 mm
Focal length range:
8.8 - 176 mm
Digital zoom:Indicates the digital zoom capacity, the number of times that the picture is enlarged thanks to digital technology.
10x
Image stabilizer:This camera function compensates for slight shaking movements caused by an unstable position and ensures smooth footage even in suboptimal conditions.
Yes
Optical zoom:Indicates the optical zoom capacity, which is the number of times that the picture can be enlarged with the optics of the camera.
