Sony HXR-NX5R Full HD Professional Camcorder with 40x Zoom and Built-in Wireless Functionality

The Sony HXR-NX5R Full HD handheld camcorder offers improved network functionality over previous cameras in the line, and it allows you to select from XAVC-S 50 Mb/s to AVCHD/DV recording. The HXR-NX5R is ideal for a corporate video to education, live events to weddings. Moreover, the NX5R shoots at NTSC broadcast frame rates from 59.94 to 23.98. The built-in Wi-Fi and FTP wireless connections enable you to send footage to your editor from the camera while on location, instead of having to send the media cards to the editor.

In addition, the legacy codec support allows you to shoot and subsequently edit your footage into older projects shot on AVCHD or even DV formats. It incorporates a 3G-SDI output that supports Full HD 1920 x 1080p video at 59.94 fps, as well as 1080i, 720p, and 720 x 480i.

Three 1/2.8 Exmor CMOS Sensor
The HXR-NX5R is designed to get the job done quickly and efficiently, the NX5R’s advanced three 1/2.8-type Full HD Exmor CMOS system can be relied upon to deliver sharp, cleanly focused imagery in almost any shooting scenario. Recorded images are remarkably lifelike in texture and detail, while shooting is fast and hassle-free with all the NX5R’s key functions right at your fingertips. Direct Menu options display on-screen, so shooting parameters can be changed quickly and conveniently without taking your eyes off the action.

Built-In Features
The NX5R’s built-in features include an adjustable brightness LED video light, 3G-SDI terminal with Full HD 60p/50p output and advanced Multi-Interface (MI) Shoe to power and control key accessories. HXR-NX5 and HXR-NX3 accessories are fully compatible, including Sony’s popular L-Series batteries, so your existing investment is protected. Widely available consumer SDHC and SDXC media make shooting with 5XR both economical and convenient.

Rich color Imagery
The NX5R offers the latest generation imaging performance, with Full-HD progressive image capture rather than the interlaced output of the original HXR-NX5. Its three 1/2.8-type Full HD Exmor CMOS sensors provide 2.07 million effective pixel count at the 16:9 aspect ratio. Red, blue, and green light are independently captured by separate image sensors, contributing to high resolution, high sensitivity, and wide dynamic range. An advanced LSI (featuring intelligent noise reduction, enhanced detail reproduction, and distortion correction technologies) delivers remarkably lifelike images.

Built-in LED
An easily adjustable brightness LED video light is positioned just above the camcorder’s built-in microphone, providing convenient illumination for a wide range of shooting situations and minimizing the need to carry external lighting equipment. Illumination is approximately 200 lux/1m (approx. 800 lux/0.5m) with a beam angle of 30° and a color temperature of approximately 5500K. An external microphone connected via the XLR connector may cast a shadow if used simultaneously with the built-in LED video light.

Networked Interface
Live internet stream from any event using hassle-free Ustream service or a generic streaming mode for a local area network for a secure corporate presentation. The remote control makes the NX5R perfect for multi-camera shoots. Mount on a tripod and use your smartphone or tablet to monitor and control focus, zoom, iris, Rec, Start/stop and more.

Sony G Lens
The NX5R’S high-performance Sony G lens offers an expansive 28.8 mm (35mm full-frame format equivalent) angle of view at the wide end and a stunning 40X zoom. The 20x optical zoom range will easily cover most shooting situations, but when more reach is required, Sony’s advanced Clear Image Zoom employs Super Resolution Technology to double your optical zoom up to 40x while still delivering exceptional image quality.
