Extraordinary performance in an elegantly engineered package
All the features you need to capture the moment are here - wide 24-200mm1 zoom range, lightning-fast autofocus, rapid continuous shooting, improved video capabilities and pro-level operability - all in a remarkably compact body.
Sophisticated, high-performance optics
The newly designed ZEISS® Vario-Sonnar T* 24-200mm1 F2.8-4.5 lens
The new lens system is effectively configured to achieve maximum resolution and clarity across the entire zoom range, while correcting for spherical, coma and chromatic aberrations. It brings truly remarkable telephoto capability to a pocket-size package, to vastly expand your range of creative expression.
Key Features:
Wide zoom range in a compact body
The lens optics (15 elements in 12 groups) provide uncompromising high-quality images over a broad zoom range despite the compact configuration.
High-resolution optics
Lens elements including four AA (advanced aspherical) lenses and two ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass elements work together to achieve superb resolution right out to the periphery of the image, throughout the telephoto range.
Large aperture
Large apertures across the zoom range enable rapid shutter speeds and large amounts of bokeh. Even in the mid-telephoto range, the camera maintains apertures of F4 at 100mm1 and F4.5 at 200mm1.
Optical SteadyShot™
Advanced image stabilisation is equivalent to 4.0-stop1 faster shutter speed
Sony is justifiably proud of its sophisticated image stabilisation system, and now we've improved it even further, providing a degree of stabilisation equivalent to raising the shutter speed 4.0 stops2 at the 200mm1 telephoto end. Capture high-quality images even at long range and in low light, with reliably steady handheld shooting.
High-performance 1.0-type stacked CMOS sensor
The 1.0-type CMOS sensor employs an innovative stacked structure to boost processing speed, while its back-illumination technology increases light collection efficiency to achieve a wide sensitivity range (ISO 803-12800) with reduced noise.
The BIONZ X™ advanced image-processing engine contributes to image quality
Advances in the BIONZ X processing algorithm contribute to higher perceived resolution and low noise levels as well as more accurate face and eye detection. Improved image-processor speed also enables faster AF/AE detection.
Fast Hybrid AF system achieves the speediest4 autofocus in its class, at 0.03 sec5.
Remarkably rapid autofocus that's the top of its class4 is achieved by combining focal-plane phase-detection AF, with its fast speed and excellent tracking capabilities, and contrast-detection AF, with its high degree of accuracy.
Broad coverage from a 315-point wide-area phase-detection AF coverage
The 315 focal plane phase-detection AF points cover approx. 65% of the image area, and their wide area and high-density configuration mean that even distant, small and fast-moving subjects - often difficult to focus on - can be captured to the edge of the image.

[2] Contrast-detection AF coverage (25 points)
Tenacious autofocus holds onto fast-moving subjects
When your subject is moving quickly and changing direction, the High-density Tracking AF Technology keeps up with the action, densely concentrating AF points around the subject's location.

Real-time Eye AF, ideal for portrait shots
The sophisticated Real-time Eye AF has excellent tracking performance as it accurately focuses on your subject's eyes to facilitate better portrait shots.
Touch focus features make shifting focus intuitive
The Touch Focus feature allows you to set the focus simply by touching the monitor, while Touch Pad AF lets you drag your finger to intuitively position the focus when you're using the viewfinder.
