Product Description

Sony FDR AX43A 4K Handycam

Built for stability and productivity

The Sony FDR AX43A 4K Handycam is the ideal walkabout camera for capturing ultra-smooth shots in 4K. Featuring the unique Optical SteadyShot stabiliser, a Zeiss Vario-Sonnor T* lens with a wide focal length of 26.8mm, and a Exmor R CMOS sensor to provide clear, crisp, and high-definition 16.6MP stills and 4K videos. As well as a fast autofocus that intelligently predicts AF range and tracks your subject so even moving subjects remain sharp. The long battery life allows you to film continuously for up to 235 minutes, making the Sony FDR AX43A 4K Handycam the perfect compact camera for taking on the go.

Battery life

The Sony FDR AX43A 4K Handycam uses a high-capacity battery to enable recording for long periods. Continuous recording is possible for up to 235 minutes with the supplied battery.

One-touch remote and one-touch sharing

Connect NFC-capable Android devices with a simple touch, for remote control, viewing and image transfer using the Imaging Edge Mobile app10. Easy manual pairing for iOS and other devices is also available.

Shoot selfies, high- and low-position at will

Create the perfect vlogging setup by pairing the Sony FDR AX43 A4K Handycam with an optional shooting grip or microphone. The tilting LCD and grip make selfies, high-and-low position shots easy.

Stable while walking

The Sony FDR AX43A 4K Handycam ensures shake-free shooting even when walking thanks to the unique Balanced Optical SteadyShot stabiliser with internal gimbal mechanism. This technology is approximately 13 times more effective than other optical systems.

ZEISS 20x zoom 4K-compatible lens

The Sony FDR AX43A 4K Handycam features the Zeiss Vario-Sonnor T* lens that has a wide 35mm equivalent focal length of 26.8mm (during movie mode) allowing more to fit into your shot. The 20x optical zoom range in UHD 4K allows you to shoot a variety of scenes, and the zoom range can be extended by using the Clear Image Zoom of 30x/40x (4K/HD) using the Clear Image Zoom.

Exmor R CMOS sensor and BIONZ X image processing engine

The Exmor R CMOS sensor enhances image clarity, reduces noise in dark environments, and enables soft background defocusing, while the BIONZ X image processing engine achieves more naturally vivid and lifelike images and faster processing.

Stable even while running

Capture the perfect shot even when running as the Balanced Optical SteadyShot internal gimbal mechanism and image processing algorithm ensures consistent stability. Enjoy smooth movies with the Sony FDR AX43A 4K Handycam.

Fast Intelligent AF speeds up smartly

The fast intelligent AF algorithm optimises communication between the lens and image processor for a rapid AF. The prediction system predicts the AF range and accelerating lens drive to help ensure moving subjects remain in sharp focus.

Great sound, less noise

The Sony FDR AX43A 4k Handycam features three mix capsules to capture clear sound and reduce noise, enabling high-quality recording of sound with clear stereo separation.

Stable at full zoom

The stability delivered by both the gimbal and algorithm of the Balanced Optical SteadyShot allows you to shoot steady movies with the Sony FDR AX43A 4K Handycam at full zoom where camera shake is most visible.
