SONY HDR-PJ540/B Black 1/5.8" CMOS 3.0" 460K Touch LCD 30X Optical Zoom Full HD HDD/Flash Memory Camcorder

Create cinematic video in high definition 1920 x 1080 24p / 60p and high quality 9.2MP still images. Experience stunning low-light sensitivity with improved image clarity and drastically reduced grain with Sony’s back-illuminated Exmor R® CMOS sensor. Designed for compact cameras and camcorders, the Exmor R® CMOS sensor relocates the photo diodes above the support circuitry, maximizing the light gathering area per pixel so you can shoot with better results in lower lighting conditions.

On standard Optical SteadyShot™ camcorders a single "shift lens" is moved in the optical block to offset camera shake. Balanced Optical SteadyShot™ with Active Mode moves the entire optical block at once, maintaining the integrity of the optical path and reducing shake. It also reduces vignetting (light falloff towards the edge of a scene) and lowers distortion in videos and still photos.

Enjoy your favorite memories virtually anywhere with the high-contrast 25-lumen projector built-in to the LCD panel. The HDMI® multi-terminal allows you to connect external devices that have an HDMI output (smartphones, laptops, tablets, etc.) and use the camcorder’s projector to enjoy other forms of entertainment - such as video games and streaming videos - from the Internet.

Built-in Wi-Fi / NFC makes for easy one touch connection to compatible mobile devices. Turn your mobile phone and/or tablet into a remote control/viewing device, transfer your files to your mobile device wirelessly for instant sharing, Back up your data on your PC and even enjoy your videos and photos on a TV without wires.

The built-in 32GB embedded Flash memory can record and store up to eight (8) hours of high definition video footage (HD LP mode).

The 3.0" (16:9) Clear Photo Plus™ LCD touch screen (460K) displays sharp, bright, vivid images, letting you compose a shot more easily - even outdoors, while enabling you to change settings to best represent the scene. Use the touchscreen to select faces and objects to keep in focus and monitor levels of exposure while you record.

Dolby® Digital 5.1-channel recording captures active sounds coming from all directions, so you can experience your home movies the way you experienced them while recording. Premium sound features such as Auto Wind Noise Reduction and Premium Closer Voice make it even easier to attain ideal sound quality in various situations.

Picture Effects add a new level of expression and creativity to video and photos. Seven picture effects (Toy Camera, Pop Color, Soft High Key, Partial Color, Retro Photo, High Contrast Monochrome, and Posterization) are available in both photo and video modes. Shooting with these special modes will provide you an easy way to instantly transform your memories without any post editing software needed.

Experience the pinnacle of Sony lens technology with the professional-quality G Lens. Engineered for superior optical performance, Sony G lenses deliver brilliant, accurate color reproduction and sharp, amazingly detailed images. In addition, the 26.8mm focal length in Photo and Video Modes offers a broader perspective for enhanced wide angle shooting.

Get amazingly close with 30x optical zoom plus 60x 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 and video.
