Infused with TruBlack technology, the LCD provides superb contrast, brightness and glare reduction—so you can comfortably and accurately review your footage on the fly, even outdoors or in bright light conditions.

Choose Your Own Dimension

Worried you won't be able to share your 3D videos with friends and family who don't yet own a 3D-compatible TV or PC? Problem solved. With 2D playback from 3D recordings, everything that's captured in 3D can be watched in 2D. Now there's really no reason not to record everything in 3D.

High Resolution Solution

Special occasions are even better the second time around when captured in 1920x1080 Full HD resolution. In 2D mode, preserve precious moments in dazzlingly crisp, clear 60p, or evoke the gorgeous goodness of old-fashioned film when you record in 24p6. And in still image mode, you can freeze your memories into high-quality 7MP 2D photos.

See the Big Picture

No, the G doesn't stand for "great"—but it could. Proudly at the pinnacle of Sony lens technology, the G lens is engineered for optimal performance, delivering brilliant color, detailed imagery and 10x optical zoom—even in 3D. And with enhanced wide angle shooting in both photo and video modes, rest assured nothing will be left out of the picture.

Make the Switch

Whether recording or reviewing the cool content you just captured, a dedicated switch allows you to shift easily between 3D and 2D. When switched to 3D mode, only 3D content will be displayed; in 2D mode, both 2D and 3D content will be displayed in 2D. This allows you to record everything in 3D, then choose later whether to playback in 3D or in 2D.
