A 2x increase in read-out speed, compared to a conventional 1.0-inch type sensor, enables beautiful 5x slow motion image capture up to 120fps in Full HD and high resolution 4K recording with full pixel readout without binning.

Flexible 4K and Full HD recordings (XAVC Long GOP at 100Mbps) - The PXW-Z150 is designed to provide true broadcast quality performance for both 4K and Full HD productions, recording with the advanced XAVC Long GOP 100Mbps codec for brilliant 4K QFHD imagery and flexible workflows. XAVC Long's higher bit rate produces outstanding images with more details and less noise to create the number one 4K picture quality in its class. For even more flexibility in workflows, the Sony Z150 is switchable between NTSC and PAL operation.

HFR 120 fps Super Slow Motion (continuous) - High Frame Rate shots can turn everyday actions into slow motion ballet, and the Sony PXW-Z150 delivers up to 120 frames per second (fps) in Full HD, giving you a maximum of 5 times slow motion expression. There's no sacrifice in bit depth and no "windowing" of the sensor, so there's virtually no crop factor or loss in angle of view.

Clear Image Zoom (24x for HD, 18x for 4K) - A high-quality 29-348mm wide-angle lens with 12x optical zoom makes it easy to capture even the most expansive landscape scenes while also offering superb clarity and sharpness – maximizing the performance of the Sony Z150's large 1.0-inch type sensor and providing high resolution and contrast from the center to the edge of your image.

Dual media slots for recording flexibility - To extend recording times and workflow flexibility, the Sony Z150 is equipped with two memory card slots and is compatible with SDXC and SDHC cards. "Relay" mode automatically switches recording from the first to the second memory card when the first is full, while "Simul" mode permits simultaneous recording to two memory cards (for example, to create an immediate backup version).
