Advanced Camera Features

Sony-exclusive
High-performance "G Lens"
The "G Lens" provides great picture quality and versatility with a wide angle
of 29.5 mm (equivalent to 35 mm film) and a 20x high quality zoom. Two ED
(extra-low dispersion) glass elements reduce chromatic aberrations caused
by differences in light refraction to minimize color fringing. The advanced
10-group, 15-element lens structure also includes a compound aspheric lens
for images that are crisp and clear, even when shooting videos at a high
zooming ratio.

Natural-touch Lens Operation
The focus, zoom and iris ring are positioned on the lens barrel, and this design
offers the same operability as general interchangeable lenses. Focus, zoom
and iris control can all be managed easily.
Six-blade Iris
The six-blade iris diaphragm is nearly circular, enabling the creation of an
extremely beautiful background blur.
Built-in ND filters
The HXR-NX5U is equipped with three built-in ND (Neutral Density) filters – 1/4,
1/16, 1/64 – which help to vary the depth of field with iris control.
