Product details

Intelligent operation with user-friendly user interface: The new intuitive user interface makes selecting features easier than ever. All menus are easily accessible.
Experience a seamless camera shot and find the perfect shot. The camera can also be turned on and off via PlayMemories Mobile1.

Superb performance thanks to excellent features: Rely on SteadyShot if you want stable movies, if you need high light sensitivity in the dark, if you want to change the area coverage with a new adjustable field of view, and if you want unprecedented high performance with the EXMOR R sensor, the BIONZ X processor and a ZEIss lens.

SteadyShot: SteadyShot compensates for vibrations during cycling and other activities. This gives you smoother POV videos, and your followers can enjoy your performance even more.

Shooting in low light conditions: From now on you don't have to worry about taking pictures in the dark. The EXMOR R CMOS sensor provides impressive outdoor shots from sunrise to sunset and provides a natural atmosphere for indoor shots.

Field of view and zoom can be freely adjusted: Select a wide ("Wide" 3 or narrow ("Narrow") angle as the field of view, and adjust the settings during shooting using the zoom function. This is how you get professional sports and film shots.

Robust action cam and accessories: The robust new action cam accompanies you in all your activities. The included underwater housing allows you to take pictures up to a depth of 60 m and provides easy access to the camera's control buttons. The camera is protected from shocks, moisture, rust, dust and sand and is therefore prepared for all adventures.

Im Vergleich mit den günstigen Actioncams liefert Sony die weit ausgefeiltere Bedienung und eine ausgereifte Bildqualität. Lediglich harte Stöße sind nicht ganz das Revier der Sony AS50.

Günstige Alternative. Nimmt gute Videos und sehr gute Unterwasserbilder auf. Stabilisiert Bilder sehr gut. Bei wenig Licht rauschen die Videos aber. Hat Probleme mit Gegenlicht. Fotografiert gut. Am Gerät selbst gibt es keinen Monitor für Vorschaubilder, Sony bietet aber eine Fernbedienung mit Monitor als Sonderzubehör an (Sony RM-LVR2). Sehr lange Akkulaufzeit: 140 Minuten.
