Product details

The reliable dustproof / splashproof housing can be used alone or with a 60 m waterproof underwater housing 8 included in the scope of delivery. Enhanced functions for time-lapse recording in 4K and more.
The ultra-modern sensor uses almost imperceptibly incident light to take pictures in the dark. Capture fast motion and dynamic events with up to 4K resolution and 100 Mbps. Landscape shots have less distortion. This new compact remote not only looks stylish, but can also be used as a controller for various accessories like a handle. Thanks to identical user interfaces, an even better interaction between Action Cam and Live View remote control is possible. The camera can also be switched on and off via a smartphone and PlayMemories Mobile. You can convert the scene into a 4K time-lapse movie using Action Cam Movie Creator5. With the Action Cam App you can create a time-lapse movie in Full HD. Use manual settings such as white balance and AE Shift to adjust brightness and hue. Also use time code and stamp data (TC/UB) to edit recordings from different devices. The integrated GPS function indicates where you have been. Track and speed can be displayed on the video image when using the Action Cam Movie Creator. With the pre-installed Highlight Movie Maker you can record short clips and accompany them with your favourite songs. Faces and action are recognized and used in your clip. Incl. AKA-FGP1 finger grip
