Sony FDR-AX43 Handycam Video Camera

An ultra-smooth video that you can bring anywhere you go in a light and powerful product is now possible with Sony's FDR-AX43 UHD 4K Handycam. With an aesthetic reminiscent of classic handy cams, this portable camcorder has its respective Balanced Optical SteadyShot that ensures image stabilization. 

When it comes to low-light settings that require more detail and clarity, the low-light Exmore R CMOS image sensor can produce high-quality UHD 4K video or 16.6MP stills when you need it. No flash required -- even with the lowest settings, you can produce a shot similar in sharpness and detail as most cameras.

However, the biggest highlight is the FDR-AX43's ability to record up to UHD4K video at 24-30 FPS with codecs capable of reaching up to 100MB/s HD video. Similar to its quality image processors, the Fast, Intelligent Autofocus can track subjects, which gives you an automated focus that delivers exceptional quality and depth to your images.

The ZEISS Vario-Sonnar T*lens gives you great attention to detail at 20x optical zooms. If that's not enough, you can go for clarity even if you're using a 30X digital zoom in 4K and 250X digital zoom in Full HD videos.

The Sony FDR-AX43 features Sony's proprietary Highlight Movie Maker. With just a single button, you can create a highlight reel of your footage, playback any videos you've taken, and even shoot time-lapse videos for instant upload using the Internet.

The FDR-AX43 can be a simple point-and-shoot camcorder, but it has manual controls and parameters that give you a huge space for creativity and desired project output too.
