FAQs
How stable is the FDR-AX43 at full zoom?
With its 20x optical zoom and 30x/40x 4K/HD Clear Image Zoom; you may be thinking that you’ll need a tripod. The Balanced Optical SteadyShot plus the built-in gimbal will drastically reduce shake, even when handheld.
Not a fan of video editing?
No problem! The Highlight Movie Maker feature can do the hard work for you. Using a Dual Video Recording in 4K and Full HD; the camera stores both formats.
From there - the camera can take an MP4 formatted HD video and create a quick highlight reel using clips of your choice. It even adds transitions and background music to give it that finishing touch.
I don’t have a 4K display, why do I need to shoot 4K?
One of the benefits is future-proofing where your videos will be at the peak of resolution for years to come. Not only this, but the 4K movies will also automatically down-convert into Full HD. Plug the camera into a non-4K-device and the camera will deliver the highest resolution HD output.
