Whether you adventure takes you above or below the water line, the HDR-AS50 Full HD Action Cam from Sony has you covered. Able to record 1080p60 video in the low-compression XAVC S codec, it is no slouch when it comes to photos either - snapping 11.9MP stills with multiple shooting modes available. The camera is Bluetooth-equipped for app-based monitoring and control. It can also be operated remotely using the separately available watch-style Live-View Remote. Where a Wi-Fi Internet connection is available, you can even stream the action live via Ustream. An ultra wide ZEISS Tessar lens provides an immersive POV feel when in Wide mode and can be set to Narrow to put the emphasis more on the subject. A 197' underwater housing comes standard.

Redesigned User Interface

A new, graphical user interface has been introduced with the HDR-AS50. This simplifies menu navigation, helping you get to the setting you need faster and with less fuss. You can also operate the camera via the PlayMemories mobile app for iOS and Android - even turn the camera on or off

SteadyShot Image Stabilization

Capture steady images even when the going gets rough. The HDR-AS50 features electronic image stabilization to help compensate for camera shake. This means less motion blur in your action

1/2.3" Exmor R CMOS Sensor

The Exmor R image sensor features back-side illumination for reduced noise levels and enhanced low-light performance. A Bionz X processor backs up the sensor by providing the horsepower needed to capture Full HD 60 fps images in the 50 Mbps XAVC S codec

Angle of View Adjustment

Get a different perspective on the world. The HDR-AS50 offers two angle of view settings. A Wide mode for an immersive fisheye effect and a Narrow mode for a tighter framing. In addition, seamlessly adjustable zoom mode enables you to change zooming while shooting.

4K Time-Lapse Capture

Time-lapse Capture lets you produce time-lapse movies by using 4K still images shot at designated intervals. Then the Action Cam Movie Creator or Action Cam App simply transform these images into an impressive time-lapse movie

Live Streaming via Ustream

Share ski runs, killer waves (and wipeouts) in real time. Stream scenes as they happen complete with picture and sound

120 fps 720p HD for Slow Motion

Record 720p video at a high frame rate of 120 fps, then slow it down using your favorite editing software to produce dramatic slow-motion effects

Manual Settings

Take you movies further with advanced manual settings like white balance and AE shifting, and optimize brightness and hue to match images of other camcorders for more seamless movie editing

Burst Shooting

Catch fast-moving action with burst shooting. This allows you to take a maximum of eight high-quality shots of a trick or transition, making it the perfect feature for those who love go back and analyze their style. Settings are 8 fps over 1 second, 5 fps over 2 seconds, and 2 fps over 5 seconds

Multi Camera Control

Use up to five cameras to get exciting ground-up or head-down shots. And control them all effortlessly with the separately available Live-View Remote or smartphone with PlayMemories Mobile app

Motion Shot LE

Capture an entire action sequence in a single frame. This feature creates a composite image of a subject in motion, with variable settings for different burst speeds, which are: 8 fps over 1 second, 5 fps over 2 seconds, and 2 fps over 5 seconds

Action Cam Movie Creator for Mac and Windows

Make your movies look even better with Action Cam Movie Creator. Produce and edit videos quickly and easily thanks to a range of features such as 4K Time-lapse Capture and slo-mo video. You can also flip your videos clockwise or counter clockwise by 90° with Movie Rotation, or use Multi View to combine up to four movie footage segments - captured simultaneously by different cameras - and make a split-screen composite

Action Cam App

This app for iOS and Android allows you to ingest clips to your mobile device, make basic edits, and create effects such as time-lapse and slow motion

Note: Bluetooth 4.0 or later mobile devices required

Loop Recording

Don't worry about missing the perfect moment with loop recording. Loop overwrite shooting can be chosen with duration options of 5, 20, 60, 120 minutes, or "unlimited." Use it to capture the decisive moment without worrying about running out of capacity

Hybrid Memory Stick M2 / microSD Media Slot

The memory card slot accepts Memory Stick Micro (M2) and microSDXC memory cards (Class 4 or higher). Choose the card best suited to your shooting requirements and compatibility with your PC (memory cards available separately.)

197' Underwater Housing Included

Equipped with a flat panel lens port for minimal distortion under water, the housing lets you retain access to all camera buttons. What's more, it shields the HDR-AS50 from shocks, damp, dust, and sand

Standard 1/4"-20 Tripod Interface

Built-in tripod socket means you can attach your Action Cam to a tripod for rock-steady shots. Additionally, the USB connection is located on the back of the camera for easier accessory attachment

Three Tally Lights

This Action Cam features three tally lights - on the front, top, and rear of the camera. Now you can easily check the recording status from various directions, as well as hear the sound of the helpful beep reminder
