Sony AX43 Handycam

The Sony AX43 Handycam is a powerful and portable digital video camera, notable for its premium 4K video quality and advanced Optical SteadyShot Stabilisation system, which provides gimbal-like stabilisation without the need for accessories. AF performance is swift and accurate, with the ability to lock on and track moving subjects, with face detection and smile shutter also available. In some welcome news for content creators, the AX43 features a high-quality 3-capsule mic for audio recording.

At the front of the Sony AX43 is a high-quality Zeiss Vario-Sonnar zoom lens, with a versatile 20x optical zoom lens. This lens starts at a wide 26.8mm equivalent, so it is perfect for framing a variety of subjects. The Sony AX43 uniquely includes a dual video mode, which allows you to record both XAVC S 4K video and MP4 videos, for easier playback and sharing. Users can monitor their filming and playback their results via the 3-inch tilting touch LCD screen, or connect to a large monitor via the HDMI output.

Other important features of the Sony AX43 include a built-in 4K time-lapse mode, enhanced manual controls, as well as a range of automated features that make striking content creation a breeze. There is even a customisable ring at the front of the camera which can be assigned to control zoom, focus, iris and more.
