Despite the emergence of smart phone cameras in today’s market, the HX50V model gives photographers plenty of reason to invest in a dedicated pocket camera. It’s wide-ranging 30x optical zoom gives users more freedom to pick their shooting subject and position, and its extensive, advanced imaging capabilities give shooters the peace of mind that image quality will never be compromised – every scene will be given the color, detail and clarity that it deserves. This powerful combination of size and performance makes the HX50 an especially unique, versatile camera.
The Cyber-shot HX50V includes numerous features to help you take great shots on the go! It packs Optical SteadyShot image stabilization to reduce camera shake and blur at all ranges, has a high-resolution 20.4 megapixel sensor and a powerful BIONZ processor. This allows the HX50V camera to produce high-resolution, high-quality images in all types of lighting conditions.
Onboard Wi-Fi capabilities let the camera utilize Sony’s PlayMemories Mobile application. This, in turn, allows a connected device to be used as a wireless remote. (It is available for both Android and iOS app platforms.) to wirelessly transfer photos and videos to a connected smartphone or tablet.

The HX50V also makes a great, pocket-sized camcorder. It shoots full HD (60p) movies that “benefit from Optical SteadyShot Active mode”. This helps reduce shake and image blur if the camera is in motion. And if you like playing with your pictures the HX50V has you cover too, offering Pop Color, Partial Color, Soft High-Key and more.
