About the Sony HDR-CX405 Full HD Camcorder

The Sony HDR-CX405 is a small, easy-to-use Full HD camcorder designed for everyday filming. Its Zeiss Vario-Tessar zoom starts at a wide 26.8mm equivalent, so you can fit more of a room, street or group into the frame, and zooms in for distant subjects. Video is recorded at 1080p to Memory Stick or SD cards, and the 2.7-inch LCD makes framing and playback straightforward. Optical SteadyShot reduces shake for steadier handheld footage, and the compact body slips into a bag or pocket. It suits family events, holidays and travel, or anyone who wants simple, dedicated video rather than filming on a phone.
