HDR-CX116E Media Reviews

Full HD quality that everyone can enjoy

Very light, compact and easy to use with great video and still image quality, even in low light. Up to 3 hours Full HD recording on 8GB internal memory and more on optional memory card. SteadyShot Active Mode and iAUTO for effortlessly beautiful images.

Low light, no problem

Many camcorders struggle in low light, producing grainy, fuzzy images. Super sensitive Exmor R™ CMOS Sensor reduces image noise for clearer images. In conjunction with the powerful BIONZ processor you’ll get great results in low light, dim interiors or at dusk.

No more camera shake

Wobbly pictures caused by unsteady hands are a common problem when you’re shooting without a tripod. SteadyShot Active Mode keeps things clear and stable, now offering up to 10x stabilisation at wide angle settings.

Everything’s adjusted for you

It can be hard knowing the right camcorder settings for a particular scene. Intelligent AUTO (iAUTO) takes away the guesswork, selecting from 90 different combinations of Face Detection, your shooting situation (handheld or tripod), and scene types. Handycam® then adjusts all parameters for clear, satisfying results.

Best-ever Full HD picture quality

More bits in every frame means better-looking pictures. For quality-critical productions, new FX Mode captures detail-packed 1920x1080/50i video at a full 24Mbps – the highest bit-rate specified by the AVCHD format.
