Ultra Wide-angle 26.0mm Carl Zeiss Vario-Sonnar T* Lens and Exmor R™ CMOS Image Sensor The HXR-NX30U comes with a Carl Zeiss Vario-Sonnar T* lens that minimizes unwanted reflections for faithful color reproduction. It also provides high contrast and high image quality with exceptional resolution from 26.0mm wide angle to 260mm telephoto (35mm equivalent). Thanks to the 6-blade iris diaphragm, you can enjoy exceptionally realistic representations of natural lighting. And when shooting dark scenes, the back-illuminated Exmor R CMOS sensor provides high sensitivity and low noise that are hard to believe come from such a compact unit. What's more, using a 1/2.88-inch type sensor with an aspect ratio of 16:9 is ideal for wide-angle shooting. This lets you record images with even higher definition. 40mm 26mm (HXR-NX30U) Simulated Images Balanced Optical SteadyShot The innovative Balanced Optical SteadyShot™ image stabilization system virtually eliminates the influence of camera shake by enclosing the entire optical block, from the lens to the image sensor, in a "floating" space. Combined with electronic image stabilization that compensates for rotation around the optical axis, this new system provides powerful image stabilization even when shooting while zooming, which was previously difficult to achieve. So now you can record stable images with minimal blur. FIXED SHOT mode To optimize the effect of Balanced Optical SteadyShot™, the HXR-NX30U features a FIXED SHOT mode. Press a button and this expands the movable range of the optical block to keep you locked on your subject. This is particularly convenient when you want to maintain the same shooting angle for an extended period. AVCHD 2.0 1920 x 1080 Full HD 60p Recording with 24.1 Mega (6544 x 3680) pixels1 still image capture2 You can shoot at 60fps progressive (1080/60p) with 1920x1080 Full HD resolution. And using a 24p timeline setting with AVCHD™ 2.0 compatible NLE software enables conversion to smooth slow-motion images up to 2.5x slower. You can also select 1280x720 60p and a wide range of other formats. 1: Realized using the "By Pixel Super Resolution" technology. 2: Dual Rec is not active while recording mode is set to FX or PS. 96GB embedded Flash Memory and Memory Stick® / SD Multi Card Slot The built-in 96GB embedded Flash memory can record and store up to 40 hours of high definition video footage in HD LP mode with Dolby® Digital audio mode.

You can also use these readily available cards to copy data from internal memory. XLR Adaptor with Selectable Phantom Power and ECM-XM1 Shotgun Microphone Enabling High-Quality Linear PCM Recording The detachable handle has an ergonomic design that is comfortable and compact. Two balanced XLR audio inputs are built-in with phantom power and attenuation options that professional users require for clean sound quality. Default audio settings for XLR recording are highlighted in green for easy reference in the field in order to reduce operator error under difficult lighting conditions. The ECM-XM1 shotgun microphone mounted on top of the handle provides audio recording performance similar to larger shoulder-mounted ENG style cameras. The HXR-NX30U is also ready to record high-quality 48kHz/16 bit Linear PCM audio.
