The camcorder provides extremely high sensitivity due to the back-illuminated Exmor® R CMOS sensor even in 4K shooting. With over 8.8 million effective pixels, the 1/2.3" sensor captures 4K images at 50p or 60p. The built-in high-performance G Lens offers maximum shooting flexibility, including a wide angle of 30mm in 4096x2160 mode, or 31.5mm in 3840x2160 and 1920x1080 modes. The PXW-Z100 also offers powerful 20x optical zoom capability (equivalent to 35mm).
