About the Sony HDR-CX450 Camcorder

The Sony HDR-CX450 is a compact, easy-to-use camcorder for shooting family events, holidays and everyday moments in Full HD. Its 30x optical zoom pulls distant subjects close without losing detail, while 5-axis image stabilisation keeps handheld footage steady even when walking. The 3-inch LCD flips out for framing and reviewing clips, and the built-in microphone captures clear audio. With a lightweight body and simple controls, it is a straightforward step up from a phone for anyone who wants a dedicated video camera with a long zoom and reliable stabilisation.
