1/2.88” "Exmor R" CMOS image sensor with ClearVid™ array
A 1/2.88” "Exmor R"™ CMOS image sensor
delivers bright, vivid, spectacularly detailed video footage, as well as 12 megapixel still images. With 6 megapixel
(effective) video resolution, the image sensor actually captures video at four times the density of high definition
resolution resulting in a sharper and more detailed 1920 x 1080 HD picture. In addition, "Exmor R" technology captures
images with high resolution and high sensitivity, while the advanced Sony® BIONZ™ image processor improves
camera response time and screens out noise to help ensure that the signal from each pixel is as pure as possible.

Back-illuminated "Exmor R" CMOS sensor
Experience stunning low-light sensitivity with improved image clarity
and drastically reduced grain with the newly developed, back-illuminated "Exmor R" sensor. Designed for compact
cameras and camcorders, the "Exmor R" sensor relocates the photo diodes above the support circuitry, maximizing
the light-gathering area per pixel so you can shoot with better results in lower lighting conditions. Approx. 2x increase
in sensitivity compared to Sony's existing front-illuminated CMOS sensors at F2.0.

Geotagging with built-in GPS receiver
A built-in GPS receiver makes the HDR-CX520V an ideal choice for
travelers. The receiver gives you the ability to view your current location on the LCD map display, as well as "tag" your
shooting locations. Tagged videos and still images can be reviewed and played back using the Map Index function on
the camcorder or once downloaded to your PC using the supplied PMB (Picture Motion Browser) software .
Additionally, the receiver automatically adjusts your camcorder's clock to the proper time zone.
