Don't let its size fool you– the compact Sony HXR-NX30U professional camera delivers stunning image quality and doesn't weigh you down. Full of brand new technology never seen before, like the Balanced Optical SteadyShot. The lens is mounted within a gyroscope, which affords unbelieveable image stabilization. This feature is great for walking and shooting or for solo hunters who may need to hold the camera steady. If you are a predator hunter that films at night, the built-in infrared NightShot allows you to film and take pictures in complete darkness!
For long hunts, the Sony HXR-NX30U's 96GB internal memory allows you to film nearly 9 hours on the highest setting. You can throw in another 32GB card and film for a total of 12 hours! And, through in a couple of extra NP-FV100 batteries, you'll have plenty of power to film that recovery after dark!
The Sony HXR-NX30U has a 10x optical zoom that will bring that buck in close, and with the superb optical quality of Sony's lens, he'll look just as good 100 yards out as he will on your wall. Never before seen in small cameras, the manual focus wheel allows you can manually focus on the buck and not the annoying tree limbs in front! Threads around the lens of the camera allow you to easily extend your zoom capabilities with the addition of a telephoto lens.
Incorporating the technology proven in Sony's professional NXCAM level cameras, the 1/2.88" CMOS Pro image sensor delivers outstanding video quality and superb low-light performance. And with the Balanced Optical SteadyShot, no one will never know how much you were shaking when you released your bow! If you want to cut down on movement, the Sony HXR-NX30U allows you to add a remote control to control your zoom and focus controls. Less movement means a great chance of scoring that giant buck!
Designed with outdoor videographers in mind, this compact camcorder features a handlebar that allows you to capture low angle shots. The handle also features professional dual XLR audio ports and controls. This connection makes it possible to get even better audio with the included Shotgun Microphone and allows you to add wireless microphone system as well. And, if you plug in a good set of headphones, you may even hear that bruiser coming before you see him!
After you capture that booner on film, use the Sony HXR-NX30U as a still camera to capture 24.1 megapixel recovery shots, even in infrared! Use the GPS Geo Tagging to tag where you shot him so that you never will forget that stand location.
After the hunt's over, head back to camp and with the built in projecton on the LCD screen, project your hunt up to 100" (diagonal) on a white wall to share your hunt with everyone! To transfer your footage you insert your SDHC card into your computer. A little basic editing with a user-friendly software such as Adobe Premiere Elements, and you're ready to show the world through Facebook, Youtube, or even DVD. Recording and sharing your adventures has never been easier!
