Be at the forefront of professional videography with the Sony PXW-Z450 4K XDCAM Shoulder Mount Camcorder. This advanced, high-quality camcorder is designed to deliver 4K QFHD (3840 x 2160) recording at 50p/59.94p, as well as a variety of HD formats including XAVC Intra, XAVC Long GOP, MPEG HD 422, and MPEG HD 420.
The PXW-Z450 is equipped with a specially developed 4K 2/3-type Exmor R CMOS sensor, making it an ideal choice for a broad spectrum of 4K operations. This innovative feature allows you to use a wide range of commercially available B4 mount lenses without the need for an adapter, providing versatility and convenience for all your professional videography needs.
This durable camcorder offers the same advanced features as the PXW-X400 Full HD camcorder, including exceptional weight balance and low power consumption. It also boasts excellent networking features such as a built-in wireless module, an embedded RJ-45 Ethernet 100B-T connector, and a Near Field Communication (NFC) function for easy Wireless LAN setup and operation via a mobile or tablet with Sony's Content Browser Mobile application.
The PXW-Z450 supports a wide variety of formats including 4K QFHD and HD XAVC Intra and XAVC Long GOP at 50p/59.94p. Thanks to its versatile 2/3-type native sensor and B4 lens mount, this camcorder allows you to install a variety of B4 ENG lenses including either 4K or HD. This flexibility supports a variety of shooting applications while saving costs.
Designed with an ergonomic focus, the PXW-Z450's lighter lens grip reduces front weight and helps lessen the load on the right arm, providing comfort during long shooting sessions. The camcorder's specially developed 4K 2/3-type Exmor R CMOS sensor provides superb image quality and high sensitivity, matching B4 mount lens systems and allowing you to use commercially available B4 4K/HD lens systems without the need for an adapter.
The PXW-Z450 is the world's first 4K shoulder-mount camcorder and it inherits the design concept of the PXW-X400 XDCAM camcorder with a favorable reception. Thanks to its ergonomic design, the PXW-Z450 camcorder achieves optimized weight balance to lessen the weight on the lens grip and stable image shooting.
The camcorder supports a variety of Sony's viewfinders, including the Full HD OLED HDVF-EL30 and HDVF-EL20. The OLED viewfinders take advantage of focusing the 4K shooting. An embedded RJ-45 Ethernet 100B-T connector on the right side of the camcorder provides a robust and fast network connection that can be used for file transfer, live-streaming, and camera control from a web browser.
A Near Field Communication (NFC) function allows easy, one-touch wireless LAN connection to a smartphone or tablet device without manual setting of the network parameters. The camcorder's built-in wireless module gives you more mobility without the need for a cable, enabling proxy recording and file transfer or live-streaming.
In file transfer mode, high-resolution files and XAVC Proxy files can be transferred over wireless connection to the cloud or FTP server thanks to Content Browser Mobile (CBM) application. In Push mode, the CBM application enables users to monitor the currently shot video and to wirelessly control camcorder settings such as focus, zoom, iris, white balance, REC START/STOP and more.
With Content Browser Mobile V2.0, proxy trim, proxy partial clip upload, and logging are available. High-quality live-streaming is provided by the advanced Sony QoS technology embedded in the camcorder and in the PWS-100RX1 network RX station. Non-QoS live-streaming is also possible with a third-party receiver or VLC player.
A dedicated button gives simple on-off control of Network Client Mode, Auto Upload (Proxy) and Live-Streaming. An SD or HD-SDI (up to 1.5 G) signal can be recorded by the camcorder, a useful function to record an external feed from another camera.
By optimizing the design of the hardware, the lightweight camcorder has a low power consumption. This enables continuous recording operation for long hours of filming. Experience the future of professional videography with the Sony PXW-Z450 4K XDCAM Shoulder Mount Camcorder.
