About Sony HDR-XR520E -PAL- 240GB HDD High-Def Camcorder

The Sony HDR-XR520E 240GB HDD High Definition Handycam Camcorder is capable of recording up to 92 hours of high definition (HD) video in HD LP mode. Equipped with an advanced ClearVid CMOS sensor with Exmor-R technology, you can capture stunning 1920 x 1080 HD video and 12.1 megapixel still images with the professional-quality Sony G Lens that delivers superior optical performance.

Experience stunning low-light sensitivity with improved image clarity and drastically reduced grain with the newly developed, back-illuminated Exmor-R sensor. Designed for compact cameras and camcorders, the Exmor-R sensor is designed to let you shoot video in lower lighting conditions with better results. Featuring Face Detection technology and Smile Shutter technology, capturing smiles and faces is easier than ever. Smile Shutter captures a smile the moment it happens and takes still photos when your subject smiles, even when shooting video.

Face Detection automatically detects faces and then controls focus, exposure and color while analyzing and enhancing for more natural skin tone in both video and still images. Experience a simple way to transfer, sort, view and share your video and still images with the supplied PMB PC software. In addition, multiple output options let you burn your memories to DVD, AVCHD and Blu-ray Disc media, as well as take advanta ge of one click upload to a number of popular video and photo sharing sites.

Optical SteadyShot with Active Mode represents the next step forward in Sony image stabilization technology.

Active Mode improves on existing Optical SteadyShot image stabilization by allowing the camera lens to shift over a greater range of motion. This allows the HDR-XR500 to compensate for greater degrees of camera shake and deliver a stunning level of image smoothness. Highlight Playback uses several criteria - including Face Index, Smile Shutter technology, Dual Capture and time range - to identify and compile key scenes into a short, entertaining movie complete with music and transitions.
