    From the Manufacturer

    Point and Shoot Digital Still Camera

    You can’t do this with a smartphone. Snap pin-sharp, 18.2MP photos from afar with the 20x zoom camera that fits in your pocket. There’s also ultra-smooth recording that minimizes shake while shooting on the move, perfect for video lovers. Like taking shots in near darkness but hate disturbing the mood with a flash? The Exmor RCMOS image sensor harnesses lots of light to make candlelit moments really shine.

    20x Optical/40x Clear Image Zoom G Lens

    Get amazingly close with 20x optical zoom plus 40x Clear Image digital zoom. Most digital zooms use electronic cropping to get closer to the subject, resulting in unsharp images. With Clear Image Zoom the powerful processor compares patterns found in adjacent pixels and creates new pixels to match selected patterns, resulting in more realistic, higher-quality images. Clear Image Zoom doubles optical zoom for closer photos.

    Shoot incredibly smooth video1 and stills

    Shoot incredibly smooth video1 and still images with the new BIONZ X processor and Optical SteadyShot Image Stabilization with Intelligent Active mode. When the processor and image stabilization technology work together they deliver sharp image quality with low noise and minimal blur even while the user is strolling and the camera is zoomed in.

    20.4 MP Exmorr R CMOS Sensor for superb low light images

    This camera features a 20.4 megapixel Exmor R CMOS image sensor that brings out the full resolving power of the camera’s professional G Lens to deliver extremely fast speed, high resolution, and stunning low-light sensitivity with improved image clarity and drastically reduced grain. In addition, the combined Exmor R CMOS sensor and BIONZ X image processor delivers extremely fast up to 10fps, Anti Motion Blur, Hand-held Twilight and 1080p movie modes

    Keep your subject in focus with Lock-On AF

    Lock-On AF gives you the ability to focus on multiple points with subject recognition to keep your subject in sharp focus even when in motion.

    Simple connectivity to smartphones via Wi-Fi or NFC3

    Connectivity with smartphones for One-touch sharing/One-touch remote has been simplified with Wi-Fi/NFC3 control. In addition to Wi-Fi support for connecting to smartphones, the camera also supports NFC (near field communication) providing “one touch connection” convenience when transferring images to Android smartphones and tablets. Users need only touch devices to connect; no complex set-up is required. Moreover, when using Smart Remote Control — a feature that allows shutter release to be controlled by a smartphone — connection to the smartphone can be established by simply touching compatible devices.

    Motion-Shot Video traces subject movement

    Motion-Shot Video traces subject movement on the camera’s LCD for a unique visual effect. Use this playback function on the camera to study form and pathways of subjects.

    4K quality still image output via HDMI2

    Enjoy the beauty of 4K quality still image (4x the resolution of Full HD) via simple HDMI connection to compatible 4K TVs2. The camera can also be connected via HDMI to HDTVs for full HD 1080p resolution images.

    Sweep Panorama mode (up to 360°)

    Reach beyond the traditional wide angle lens, and capture more breathtaking shots with Sweep Panorama mode. Simply press the shutter button and sweep the camera in the desired direction and the camera continuously shoots at a high speed, then seamlessly stitches the images together with automatic position adjustment to create one stunning panoramic image. Available in wide and up to 360° full circle, the camera can take a variety of panoramic shots. Now capturing wide landscapes is as easy as press and sweep.

    Picture Effect for more expressive photos

    Picture Effect adds a new level of expression to photos, making ordinary landscapes and portraits come to life by heightening mood and emphasizing certain attributes. Select camera models have up to nine different effects.

    great camera:update april 2015/April 2016/ June 2016 well maybe not so great.
    UPDATE June 11, 2016I Have been extra careful with this camera. AS you see below the lenses are cheap plastic and scratch VERY easily. I just noticed I have a scratch on one of the NEW lenses. I love the camera but hate the lenses. I do not know what I ma going to do but until they improve the quality of the lenses think twice before you buy.April 2016 UPDATE. Still love the cameras BUT this is my second one. As you can read below I had issues with the first on. Turns out the lens is made of plastic so it scratches really easy. I was very careful but still camera #1 would up with two "spots" on the lens. I purchase camera #2 because I really do like them and with in a few months it had 2 "spots" on the lens. Now I had 2 expensive camera that had bad lens. I have a friend that is good a fixing things so he ordered two replacement lens at $50.00 each from EBay and fix both cameras for $20.00 so I have two working cameras for $120.00. I am being REALLY careful with them and we will see how long the lens last this time.But the cameras are great (except for the plastic easily damage lens) and I am glad I now have a back up just in case.below is photo showing the two "spots" in the second cameras photos before we changed lens. Second is after new lens (although you cannot tell if it is fixed because the background is dark) 3rd photo is zoomed, great photos for standing taking photos from almost 1/4 mile away. The photos this camera takes are beautiful.I really like the camera and it takes great photos even when I am using the 20X zoom. The only down part is it has a flimsy cover (much like the old cell phones) to protect the port fro the USB cord. I can see where this will not last long. It is suppose to be wireless so I need to Call Sony as the emails and product manual are not helping. Will give further feed back when I get it hooked up wirelesslyApril 2, 2015 6 months later. The camera was great to begin with but then about 2 months ago photos began to blur. No about 3 out of 7 photos are blurry no matter what I do. Then the shutter that covers the lens when you shut off camera quit opening up all the way. So now I have to check my camera each time to make sure the shutter is completely open or I wind up with these funky looking photo. I am really disappointed because I like the camera and the 20 X zoom was great.April 18, 2015 Maybe I was a bit hasty with complaint. I finally went online to see why the lens shutter/cover was not opening completely. One suggestion was sand or dust had gotten under it and to use the vacuum on it to suck out sand or dust!! Well I was at the end of my rope so I figured why not? Turn camera on, extend lens, place upside down and apply vacuum hose to it. IT WORKED!!!! now my photos are not blurring so I am guessing I was so frustrated with the shutter not opening all the way I was not as careful as I should have been when taking photos.

I love the camera but hate the lenses. I do not know what I ma going to do but until they improve the quality of the lenses think twice before you buy.

    April 2016 UPDATE. Still love the cameras BUT this is my second one. As you can read below I had issues with the first on. Turns out the lens is made of plastic so it scratches really easy. I was very careful but still camera #1 would up with two "spots" on the lens. I purchase camera #2 because I really do like them and with in a few months it had 2 "spots" on the lens. Now I had 2 expensive camera that had bad lens. I have a friend that is good a fixing things so he ordered two replacement lens at $50.00 each from EBay and fix both cameras for $20.00 so I have two working cameras for $120.00. I am being REALLY careful with them and we will see how long the lens last this time.

    But the cameras are great (except for the plastic easily damage lens) and I am glad I now have a back up just in case.
    below is photo showing the two "spots" in the second cameras photos before we changed lens. Second is after new lens (although you cannot tell if it is fixed because the background is dark) 3rd photo is zoomed, great photos for standing taking photos from almost 1/4 mile away. The photos this camera takes are beautiful.

    I really like the camera and it takes great photos even when I am using the 20X zoom. The only down part is it has a flimsy cover (much like the old cell phones) to protect the port fro the USB cord. I can see where this will not last long. It is suppose to be wireless so I need to Call Sony as the emails and product manual are not helping. Will give further feed back when I get it hooked up wirelessly

    April 2, 2015 6 months later. The camera was great to begin with but then about 2 months ago photos began to blur. No about 3 out of 7 photos are blurry no matter what I do. Then the shutter that covers the lens when you shut off camera quit opening up all the way. So now I have to check my camera each time to make sure the shutter is completely open or I wind up with these funky looking photo. I am really disappointed because I like the camera and the 20 X zoom was great.
    April 18, 2015 Maybe I was a bit hasty with complaint. I finally went online to see why the lens shutter/cover was not opening completely. One suggestion was sand or dust had gotten under it and to use the vacuum on it to suck out sand or dust!! Well I was at the end of my rope so I figured why not? Turn camera on, extend lens, place upside down and apply vacuum hose to it. IT WORKED!!!! now my photos are not blurring so I am guessing I was so frustrated with the shutter not opening all the way I was not as careful as I should have been when taking photos.
