CMOS Sensor
Create cinematic video in high denition 1920 x 1080 24p/60p and high quality 20.4MP still
images. Experience stunning low-light sensitivity with improved image clarity and drastically
reduced grain with Sony’s back-illuminated Exmor

at once, maintaining the integrity of the optical path and improving shake reduction by up to
13X. It also reduces vignetting (light fallo towards the edge of a scene) and lowers distortion in
videos and still photos.
