Add high-quality performance, adaptability, and ease of use to your camera rig with the HXR-NX3 NXCAM Professional Handheld Camcorder from Sony. The camcorder features a 3-chip Exmor sensor with Full HD 1920 x 1080 resolution, a Sony G lens with 20x optical zoom range, and a 40x Clear Image Zoom for 35mm equivalent focal lengths up to 1152mm. It also features Wi-Fi connectivity for transferring video files from the camcorder to mobile devices, as well as controlling camera functions from your smartphone or tablet. A network-friendly 720p, 3 Mb/s MP4 recording option allows for easy transfer and compatibility with computers, smartphones, tablets, and other mobile devices.
The HXR-NX3 records video using the AVCHD 2.0 format, with frame rates up to 60p for recording smooth motion. Additional 60i, 30p, and 24p modes are also available. You can also record in the DV format, letting you fit the camcorder into existing DV workflows. Media is recorded to two SD memory card slots with support for a Sony Memory Stick Duo. You can choose to record simultaneously to both cards or use the relay mode which switches recording automatically to the second memory card when the first one is full. The two card slots can be controlled independently from two separate record buttons. An HDMI output connector provides uncompressed 8-bit 4:2:2 signals while shooting for use with external recorders.
