Product details

Intelligent operation with a user-friendly interface: Selecting functions is easier than ever thanks to the intuitive interface. All menus are easily accessible. Experience seamless camera settings and find the perfect adjustment. The camera can also be turned on and off via PlayMemories Mobile.

Fantastic performance thanks to excellent features: Rely on SteadyShot for stable videos, high sensitivity in low light, adjustable field of view coverage, and unparalleled performance with the EXMOR R sensor, BIONZ X processor, and a Zeiss lens.

Reduced shake in POV videos with SteadyShot: SteadyShot compensates for vibrations while cycling and during other activities. This results in smoother POV videos, allowing your followers to enjoy your performance even more.

Low-light shooting: You no longer need to worry about shooting in the dark. The EXMOR R CMOS sensor delivers impressive outdoor shots from sunrise to sunset and creates a natural atmosphere even in indoor settings.

Field of view and zoom can be freely adjusted: Choose a wide or narrow angle for your field of view and adjust the settings during recording using the zoom. This allows you to achieve professional sports and film recordings.

The rugged action cam accompanies you in all your activities. The included underwater housing allows for recordings up to a depth of 60 meters and provides easy access to the camera's control buttons. The camera is protected against shocks, moisture, rust, dust, and sand, making it ready for any adventure.

  • NegativeStöße verursachen Bildfehler

Im Vergleich mit den günstigen Actioncams liefert Sony die weit ausgefeiltere Bedienung und eine ausgereifte Bildqualität. Lediglich harte Stöße sind nicht ganz das Revier der Sony AS50.

Rank 2 out of 15Stiftung WarentestCoolsein ist nicht alles - Action-CamcorderReleaseJuly 2016

Günstige Alternative. Nimmt gute Videos und sehr gute Unterwasserbilder auf. Stabilisiert Bilder sehr gut. Bei wenig Licht rauschen die Videos aber. Hat Probleme mit Gegenlicht. Fotografiert gut. Am Gerät selbst gibt es keinen Monitor für Vorschaubilder, Sony bietet aber eine Fernbedienung mit Monitor als Sonderzubehör an (Sony RM-LVR2). Sehr lange Akkulaufzeit: 140 Minuten.

Rank 4 out of 6Computer BildBitte Lächeln: Technik auf Tour - Action-Cams für Outdoor-HeldenReleaseJune 2016

Endlich frischer Wind im Actioncam-Markt? Aber ja, stürmischer gar! Die kleine GoPro Hero Session sicherte sich nur knapp den Gesamtsieg. Platz zwei und drei gehen an die überraschend gute Rollei und die toll ausgestattete Somikon. Sony, Ricoh und vor allem Panasonic müssen sich ranhalten, um den Anschluss nicht zu verlieren.
