HC-V785 HD Camcorder

Reproduce even dark scenes with the beauty of the high-sensitivity BSI sensor. This helps to capture those special moments that only come once in a lifetime. The 1/2.3-inch Side Illumination Sensor has a large, effective area and 3% larger pixels compared to a commonly used 1/5.8-inch sensor, suppressing noise when shooting in dimly lit places, such as indoor scenes or nightscapes. It achieves stunningly beautiful images even down to the tiniest details. 

By driving each of four lens groups separately, the drive ranges are reduced, resulting in high image quality, high-powered zooming and a compact camera body. This keeps the body compacy even with a 20x optical zoom. Using your smartphone with Wi-Fi operation as a sub camera, you can shoot from two angles at the same time. Since you are shooting with different cameras, you can use one at a distance, or any angle you choose. 

Enjoy crisper, clearer videos thanks to the HDR Movie function. It combines two images taken with different exposures to suppress blown highlights and blocked shadows. Even in difficult shooting situations, such as backlighting. You can easily capture natural videos with excellent gradation. 

The HYBRID O.I.S uses five-axis correction to thoroughly suppress blurring all the way from wide-angle to powerful zoom shots. The Level Shot function automatically detects and corrects the tilting of captured images.
