Description

Get close... and closer still. With its huge 30x optical zoom and svelte dimensions, the super-compact Cyber-shot HX60 makes a great travel partner for fun-packed holidays and intimate encounters with the natural world. The back-illuminated Exmor R CMOS sensor, premium Sony G Lens and BIONZ X capture spectacular scenes, even in low light. Unique to Sony, a powerful array of latest-generation technologies raise the bar for compact camera picture quality even further. Powerful detail reproduction technology and area-specific noise reduction ensures cleaner, even more natural images with fabulous colors and contrast, even in dim light. Gear Image Zoom assures crisp, frame-filling 60x close-ups of wildlife or distant landmarks without sacrificing pixel count. And thanks to Optical SteadyShot Intelligent Active Mode, Full HD videos maintain blur-free sharpness and definition at any zoom setting. Even if you're walking, running or holding the camera at arm's length, you'll really see the difference with impressively stable movie footage and a dramatic reduction in hard-to-watch wobbles.

On-board Wi-Fi lets you send photos and videos straight to your smartphone or tablet, while NFC connects effortlessly with compatible mobile devices at a single touch. You can even use your phone as a handy remote controller: perfect for group photos when you don't want to be stuck behind the camera. Got a 4K TV? The Cyber-shot, M HX60 outputs ultra-detailed 4K still images via HDMI to enjoy on your 4K Ultra-HD television. You'll be amazed by photo realism on the big screen.
