PJ240 Handycam® with built-in Projector
Shoot and share every moment
Capture life as you see it and share it instantly. The PJ240E Handycam®, with a built-in projector, has a powerful BIONZ X image processor, an Exmor™ R CMOS sensor, and a wide-angle ZEISS lens.
Share your movies anywhere
Throw a picture up to 254cm (100”) onto any surface and watch your movies anytime, anyplace, thanks to a built-in projector that’s bright up to 13 lumens. An HDMI input means you can project videos and photos from your smartphone too.
Finer, faster shooting
The new BIONZ X image processor is fast, powerful and reduces noise levels across the image. It works in tandem with a detailed Exmor R CMOS sensor to faithfully reproduce every aspect of the scene in precise, natural detail.
Fill your frame with a ZEISS lens
Whether close-up or panned out, capture the scene with extraordinary precision and clarity. A 29.8mm wide-angle Vario-Tessar lens by ZEISS delivers the whole picture, just as you remember it.
ull yourself closer
Need to get closer to the action? That's no problem with the PJ240E. A 27x optical and 54x Clear Image Zoom lets you get in close for those priceless moments without losing sharpness.
Shoot over two hours at a time
A Type X battery lets you enjoy up to 130 minutes of uninterrupted recording time. So you’ll never miss a moment.
Shake-free movies with image stabilisation
Shoot on the fly without shakes and bumps. Built-in SteadyShot uses motion sensors to compensate for movement while recording. The result is smooth, steady footage.
Keep track of the action
Take the guesswork out of shooting. A 6.8cm (2.4”) 230k Clear Photo LCD monitor provides clear, bright images with excellent contrast and a wide viewing angle.
