Details on the PXW-Z280
World's leading 4K HDR handheld performance
A brand new 4K 3CMOS 1/2 sensor with great depth of field and first class performance offers the culmination of 4K HDR performance in your hand. Face Detection AF keeps your subject in focus, while HLG and S-Log3 offer a breathtaking HDR for every workflow.
Revolutionary networking skills
Deliver your content faster, wherever you are. The PXW-Z280 is the world's first camcorder with an integrated Dual Link Cellular connector for double uplink performance and reliability. Integrated 12G-SDI supports transmissions up to 12Gbps over a standard SDI cable.
The complete package for professionals
Unpack and film from day one. Advanced XAVC-Intra and XAVC-Long for 4K QFHD and HD as well as MPEG HD422, MPEG HD and DVCAM for every workflow. Familiar Sony control and operation minimize the training effort.
World's first 1/2-type 3CMOS sensor for broadcast 4K
The brand new Exmor R ? sensor of the Z280 is specially designed for 4K transmission. Its three 1/2 type Exmor R ? CMOS deliver high depth of field with excellent image quality. Red, blue and green light are captured independently of one another by separate image sensors, which contributes to a high resolution, a high sensitivity of F12 (59.94p) and a large dynamic range. An advanced LSI (with intelligent noise reduction, improved detail reproduction and distortion correction) delivers remarkably lifelike 4K 4: 2: 2 10-bit images. Even if you deliver in HD, your recordings capture details and textures that other HD sensors simply cannot see.
17x professional HD zoom lens with three independent rings with end stop and large focal length
The PXW-Z280 is equipped with a 17x professional zoom lens that can zoom from 30.3 mm to 515 mm (corresponds to 35 mm). The 1/2-inch lens has three independent control rings with end stops, which allow manual control of focus, zoom and aperture and thus enable better and faster adjustment.
The image can be enlarged in HD mode without image degradation, and the 34x zoom equivalent is captured with the sensor cropping extender.
