About the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-HX400V Bridge Camera
The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-HX400V is a bridge camera built for reach and versatility. Its 20.4-megapixel Exmor R CMOS sensor and 50x optical zoom lens cover an enormous 24–1200mm equivalent range, letting you shoot wide landscapes and distant wildlife without changing lenses. A built-in electronic viewfinder and a tilting 3-inch screen make framing easy in bright light or at awkward angles. Optical SteadyShot reduces blur at long focal lengths, while Wi-Fi with NFC and built-in GPS let you share images and record where they were taken. It is a practical all-in-one for travel, nature and family photography.
