To achieve imaging performance previously unattainable with a compact camcorder, the large 1-inch stacked CMOS image sensor with 14.2 megapixels (effective) delivers stunning ‘bokeh’ effects with background blur and superior sensitivity, resulting in high-quality images with reduced noise, even in low or high light conditions. This sensor features up to 273 high-density phase-detection AF points covering approximately 84% of the image area, for precise subject tracking across the entire frame.
