Sony FDR-AX43 UHD 4K Handycam

This compact professional camcorder bundles a 64GB memory card, soft bag and accessories for creators who need ultra-smooth UHD 4K video on the go. A built-in gimbal with Balanced Optical SteadyShot stabilization and an Exmor R CMOS sensor deliver crisp footage and 16.6MP stills in low light.

Check your workflow and storage needs

The camcorder records XAVC S 4K at up to 100 Mb/s and 1080p at 50 Mb/s, so verify your editing system handles these bitrates and that 64GB capacity suits your typical shoot length. Dual Video mode creates simultaneous MP4 files for quick mobile review, which requires a compatible device for playback and upload.

Upgrade from basic handheld cameras

The 20x optical zoom with ZEISS Vario-Sonnar T* lens and intelligent autofocus replace limited fixed-lens devices for event and travel work. The jump is worth it when you need gimbal-level stabilization without external gear, 4K time-lapse capture or Highlight Movie Maker for fast turnaround reels.
