Overview

The Sony PXW-X70 is a lightweight camcorder equipped with a 1" sensor (larger than Super 16-sized sensors) for a more cinematic-appearing depth of field compared to other camcorders of this form factor. It produces footage at a 50Mbps data rate that is suitable for broadcasting. You can simultaneously record onto two SD cards (cards not included) and do relay recording via the 3G-SDI and HDMI outputs. You can control this camcorder with WiFi using smartphones and tablets and the optional Content Browser Mobile app, which allows confirmation of shot angles and spot focus. The built-in lens features a 12x optical zoom with switchable ND filters. A digital extender allows you to zoom up to 48x. You can also record using Sony's Slow & Quick Motion settings for shooting at selectable frame rates. At just 3 lbs, including the XLR handle unit, this is a very compact camera ideal for travel and "small space" shooting.

This camcorder does not currently shoot 4K or allow WiFi file transferring/streaming. To use the version of this camera that has the 4K upgrade installed, please see our Sony PXW-X70 4K Upgrade.
