The beauty of the moment


Capture the world around you in 4K HDR (HLG) images with the Exmor RS 1.0 stacked CMOS sensor. Fast Hybrid AF works wonders and pushes the boundaries of your artistic ambitions.

HDR technology represents a true visual revolution, with a much wider range of colours and brightness to match the high-resolution image quality of 4K. The FDR-AX700 makes it easy to capture stunning HDR images with Hybrid Log-Gamma (HLG) recording.


Incredible AF performance


The exceptionally accurate autofocus system based on 273 phase-detection AF points is able to focus on a passing train and other fast-moving subjects, or more unpredictable movements, and track these subjects.

Thanks to the powerful BIONZ X high-speed image processing engine and the new video AF algorithm, the FDR-AX700 focuses with speed, accuracy and flexibility never before achieved by Handycam models.


Take control


Stay in control of your video production with a variety of manual controls, ergonomic knobs and handles and a large tilt zoom for smooth handheld shooting. A high-resolution electronic viewfinder and LCD touchscreen allow you to preview and control footage with precision. Two versatile memory card slots are convenient for extended relay recording or simultaneous backup.

Inspired by Sony's professional camcorders, the navigation system provides quicker access to basic controls as well as live previewing.


Professional features


The wide range of gamma and colour space customisation options includes S-Log2and S-Log3 profilesthat professionals use for greater creative freedom in post-production. And with variable frame rates of up to 960fps (NTSC) or 1000fps (PAL), you'll enjoy exceptional detail in slow-motion playback.

The Super Slow Motion and Slow & Quick Motion functions allow you to play with the pace, from fast-paced action scenes shot in super slow motion at up to 40x, to accelerated video sequences at up to 60x at a very brisk 1 fps rate.

    Remarkable

    Outstanding image quality in all formats, excellent viewfinder and screen, clearly above the competition. Huge adjustment possibilities (it is good to use a tutorial for this camcorder, you save a lot of time). Expensive product, and LDLC has a good price and a perfect service (ultra fast delivery), but the investment is worth it.
