For journalists, documentary makers and anyone else who needs capture superb content
whatever the conditions, the dust and rain-proof HXR-NX70E is the perfect compact
camcorder.
In low light conditions, its Exmor R CMOS sensor delivers roughly double the sensitivity
of conventional CMOS sensors, while an ultra-wide angle 26.3mm Sony G Lens lets
you capture more of the action in close shooting situations. You can also "geo-tag"
your precise location with built-in GPS, while 96 Gigabytes of embedded Flash Memory
provides up to 40 hours of storage capacity - ideal when operating in remote locations.
The exceptionally robust NX70 doesn´t sacrifice picture quality however, with
CinemaTone technology providing deeper, more film-like skin tones. And if you want
precise, hands-on control there´s a switchable lens ring for manual control
of focus, iris and zoom functions.
The HXR-NX70E is suitable for producing content international usage thanks to the
latest 50p recording options. It can also shoot still images simultaneously with
video using a Dual Rec function, providing complete on location flexibility.
Rain and Dust Proof Performance
You can be confident rainy or dusty shooting environments will not affect the reliable
operation of the HXR-NX70 thanks to its IEC60529 IP54 rating. The camcorder´s
sealed body design makes sure that harmful sand and large dust particles do not
get inside. A waterproof performance rating of IPx4 means that the main camera body
is protected against rain showers and water splashes.
Ultra-wide Angle 26.3mm G lens
Engineered for superior optical performance, Sony G lenses deliver brilliant, accurate
colour reproduction and sharp, amazingly detailed images. In addition, the 26.3mm
focal length offers a broader perspective than previous lenses for enhanced wide
angle shooting so you can capture more of the scene when close in.
Assignable Lens Ring (Focus/Zoom/Iris)
Get the most out of your camcorder with enhanced manual controls. The assignable
lens ring allows for manual adjustment of focus, iris, and zoom settings so you
have complete creative control.
Optical SteadyShot image stabilisation with Active Mode
Optical SteadyShot image stabilisation with Active Mode provides superior compensation
for camera shake to deliver stunningly smooth video from wide angle to full telephoto
shooting. In addition, the innovative 3-Way Shake-Cancelling feature adds electronic
roll stability for even smoother video capture.
Back-illuminated Exmor R CMOS sensor for superb low-light video
Journalists rarely shoot under studio lighting conditions and Sony´s back-illuminated
Exmor R CMOS sensor delivers stunning low-light sensitivity with improved image
clarity and drastically reduced grain. Designed for compact cameras and camcorders,
the Exmor R sensor relocates the photo diodes above the support circuitry, maximising
the light gathering area per pixel so you can shoot with better results in low-light
conditions. The sensitivity is roughly double that of conventional CMOS sensors
of the same size and pixel size.
1920 x 1080 Full HD 50p Recording with 12.3 Mega (4672 x 2628) pixels still image
capture
The compact HXR-NX70 shoots in Full High Definition quality (1920 x 1080) with a
choice of 50p, 50i and 25p frame rates. It also supports playback via HDMI and compatible
HDTV, for complete flexibility in reviewing your footage. Note: Dual Rec is not

Built-in Flash memory provides extra capacity, ideal when working remotely, as well
as providing additional workflow options for back-up and sharing content.
96GB embedded Flash memory can record and store up to 40 hours of high definition
video footage in HD LP mode.
3.5" touch-screen XtraFine LCD display (921K)
The large 3.5" (16:9) XtraFine LCD screen (921K) displays sharp, bright, vivid
images, letting you compose a shot more easily and alter setting to best represent
the scene, even when outdoors in bright lighting conditions.
XLR adaptor with selectable phantom power and shotgun microphone
The detachable handle has a compact, ergonomic design. Two balanced XLR audio inputs
are built in with phantom power and attenuation options that professional shooters
require for clean sound quality. Default audio settings for XLR recording are highlighted
in green for easy reference in the field in order to reduce operator error under
difficult lighting conditions.
The ECM-XM1 shotgun microphone mounted on top of the handle provides audio recording
performance similar to larger shoulder-mounted ENG style cameras.
Geotagging with built-in GPS receiver
A built-in GPS receiver makes the HXR-NX70 an ideal choice for professional videographers.
The receiver gives you the ability to "geo-tag" shooting locations - making
it easy if you need to return to the same location or to create a log when surveying
remote locations. Your locations can be tracked on Google maps and all GPS data
can be extracted with a PC.
Additionally, the receiver automatically adjusts your camcorder´s clock to
the proper time zone when international travel is part of your assignment.
Direct Copy to external HDD without PC
Store content or backup important shots by copying footage directly from your camcorder
to an external hard disk drive (sold separately) without using a computer. The HXR-NX70E
can also access videos stored on an external hard drive for playback on HDTV, allowing
you to utilise the camcorder´s handy playback features.
