The Sony WX500 is a compact camera which makes sure you always look your best when shooting handheld or recording images. With its titlable LCD screen, PlayMemories Camera apps and wireless sharing capabilities, this camera packs in a lot to provide more fun with performance.
Quality images Packed in to its compact form is a high-performance CMOS image sensor, lightning-quick image processor and a legendary lens. The ZEISS Vario-Sonnar T 30x optical zoom lens will capture clear, sharp images with minimal distortion across a 24-720m range. This is further supported by the BIONZ image processing engine which reproduces more realistic detail and colour in images with less diffraction and noise. And taking in more light for even more details is the back-illuminated Exmor R CMOS sensor with 18.2 effective megapixels.
Tiltable LCD monitor & creative options Comfortably take a selfie or shoot at a lower position with the high-resolution LCD monitor which can be tilted up to 180 degrees. And with Beauty Effect, you can retouch portraits to smooth skin, tone skin, widen eyes and brighten teeth. You can even change a photo’s look with Photo Creativity which allows you to alter the appearance of stills and movies with simple, intuitive changes to settings for brightness, colour, vividness and Picture Effect.
Fast Intelligent AF For capturing movement with ease is an extra-speedy and precise Fast Intelligent AF which is driven by an improved spatial object detection algorithm releasing a more optimal and accurate lens drive.
Intelligent Active Mode Featuring Sony’s advanced frame-analysis technology and 5-axis image stabilisation, Intelligent Active Mode compensates for camera shake. This reduces the blurriness which tends to occur in images when shooting handheld or when in action.
Movie recording Capture movies with the new XAVC S format which details extra-smooth action and high-quality sound. Whether you are shooting in this format or in high-definition AVCHD format, you can also simultaneously record another version of the same scene in a compressed, web-friendly MP4 format for convenient sharing.
Wi-Fi & NFC Lose the cords and cables – Wi-Fi and NFC capability lets you instantly connect to smartphones and tablets. Simply download the free PlayMemories Mobile App, touch it to your Android smartphone or tablet, and create a connection that lets you transfer photos, remotely control the camera's shutter release, and instantly receive the captured image via Wi-Fi.
This kit includes the Sony LCJ-HWA Jacket Camera Case:
Protect your WX500 and take stunning snaps at the same time with this finely-crafted Jacket Camera Case. Coming with a body case, lens jacket and shoulder strap, the hardy leather-look material will keep your camera scuff-free on your travels. The body case protrudes to give you a firm, stable grip when you're shooting, while the seamless double hook design lets the lens jacket flip open from the front or back. This case lets you tilt your screen, plug in a USB and attach a tripod too so you don't have to compromise convenience for security.
