20.4MP Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-HX400V Digital Camera

The Sony Cybershot DSC-HX400V is a premium super-zoom bridge camera that features a 20.4 megapixel Exmor R CMOS sensor and a 50x optical zoom lens, which is a 35mm equivalent of 24-1200mm. The lens has a minimum focusing distance of just 1cm and optical image stabilisation to keep images as sharp as possible. The HX400V can record at 10 fps.

There are two auto modes - Superior Auto aims to reduce blur and noise and Intelligent Auto selects the correct scene characteristics. The HX400V also has full manual controls, a range of scene modes and Sweep Panorama. There are also a number of picture effects you can apply to your shots - these include toy camera, miniature and partial colour.

The camera includes Wi-Fi for easy image sharing and also has GPS so you can geotag your images. Other features include NFC one-touch connectivity, the electronic viewfinder (EVF), tiltable screen and hotshoe mount.

Videos are recorded in full 1080p HD with optical zoom available and sound recorded in stereo. You can record videos using PSAM modes to control the aperture and / or shutter speeds.

With support for both Memory Stick PRO Duo and Secure Digital cards, the Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-HX400V Digital Camera is an affordable way to take your photography to the next level, with an easy to use and intuitive camera that is not far away from a DSLR camera.
