Features

Compact and Powerful 4K 60p Camcorder

While excelling in mobility and portability, the included high-capacity battery provides 4 hours and 35 minutes of shooting (60 Hz), and the compact body considers the weight balance of the advanced functions when shooting.

Remarkable Optical Performance for Precise Shooting

Wide 25mm* and Optical 24x Zoom Lens

The lens covers the range from 25mm* wide-angle to 600mm* tele with a 24x zoom. i.ZOOM achieves 32x zoom with 4K mode, and 48x zoom with FHD mode.

* 35mm camera equivalent.

4K High-Precision AF

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

HYBRID O.I.S.

In addition to Optical Image Stabilisation, Electronic Image Stabilisation 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.

Versatile Recording Mode

Supports a high bit rate of 200 Mbps for 4K 59.94p/50p video recording with HEVC (LongGOP/10 bit 4:2:0/MOV) codec, and 120/100fps* Super Slow-motion with 10-bit recording in FHD.

*59.94Hz: 120fps, 50Hz: 100fps

Heat-Dispersing Design

The heat dispersion structure equipped with an ultrathin fan enables a compact, lightweight body to be combined with ultra high definition 4K 60p recording.

Operating Ease That Quickly Meets Professional Demands

Tiltable Viewfinder with Eyecup

The 1,770K-dot-equivalent OLED colour viewfinder can be tilted for added convenience. The large eyecup fits either eye comfortably.

Wireless Control from a Tablet or Smartphone

The built-in 5-GHz/2.4-GHz Wi-Fi module enables you to connect just the body to Wi-Fi. Using a tablet or smartphone app HC ROP, wireless camera operations are also possible with live view image.

USB PD (USB Type-C)

The USB-C port enables power supply and charging with a mobile battery when the power is turned off.

Environmental Care and Initiatives

Recycled materials are used for the packaging boxes and molded pulp, and white ink is used for recyclability. It is also compatible with the versatile USB-PD standard to reduce environmental impact.

Versatile Functions Expand User's Workflow

46 functions can be allocated to the User Buttons. There are a total of 13 User Buttons: six on the body, and seven on the LCD Touch Panel. The O.I.S. and AE LEVEL buttons can also be used as User Buttons.

Functions and Designs that Support Professional Camera Work

Two Manual Rings

Two Manual Rings are provided, one for focusing and the other for zoom or iris operation. The use of the Manual Rings is improved by using different-sized rings in the front and rear, so they can be distinguished by the fingers.

ND Filter

ND filters are built into the lens to suppress the amount of incident light. The filters can be selected (1/4, 1/16, 1/64, CLEAR) to match the shooting environment. This is handy for shooting at a slow shutter speed in bright daylight.

Dual Codec Recording*

Records images simultaneously in two different formats, such as Main (UHD/FHD) and Sub (FHD), etc. This achieves an efficient workflow.

* Only MOV/MP4 format is supported. To be added by firmware update.

3.5-inch LCD with Touch Operation

The approx. 2,760-k dot LCD monitor has an RGB pixel structure for high legibility in bright light, and an electrostatic touch panel for easy menu selection. Simultaneous LCD/EVF output constantly displays the LCD monitor image whether the EVF is being viewed or not.

USB Ethernet Connection

By connecting a commercially available USB ethernet adapter to the USB-C terminal, stable live streaming is possible via a wired connection.

Simultaneous SDI/HDMI Output

Output of UHD 4:2:2 10-bit via HDMI and FHD 4:2:2 10-bit via SDI enable a variety of uses. The 3G-SDI output terminal (BNC connector, 5CFB) can be used to transmit FHD 1080/60p, 1080/50p signals through a coaxial cable over a distance of up to 100 m.

Detachable Handle Unit

Easily detachable and equipped with a REC Button, Zoom Lever, 2-channel XLR Audio Input, LED Light, etc. Capable of full-scale audio recording with a professional mic.

2-Channel XLR Audio Input Terminals

+48V Phantom Power Supply/MIC/LINE Selectable XLR Audio Input with Manual Volume is equipped for each of 2 channels. Also supports 24-bit high-resolution Linear PCM audio recording with a professional mic.

Built-in LED Video Light

The video light is extremely bright (70 lx at 1 meter) for reliable shooting in dimly lit places. The Dimming Dial on the handle can be used to easily dim the brightness.
