The Ultra-portable Camera For All Your Thrilling Adventures

Designed for the rugged adventurer, the Full HD Action Cam Mini features a light and an IPX4-class splashproof body. The camera's slim size is about two-thirds of its predecessor, making it more portable than ever to capture your adventures with superb clarity.*
*As HDR-AZ1 features limited controls, operation using Live-View Remote RM-LVR2 is strongly recommended.
Capture Sharper Images Even In Low Light
Experience stunning low-light performance thanks to the 11.9 megapixel back-illuminated Exmor R™ CMOS sensor. The Action Cam Mini's Exmor R™ delivers clearer, sharper images and drastically reduces noise when shooting in dimly lit environments.

Capture fast-action scenes with smooth image motion, thanks to the XAVC S recording with 50Mbps high bit rate data transfer. This heightens the precision and clarity of Full HD images, while suppressing compression noise.
Enjoy Smooth, Blur-free Shooting Every Time

fast-action sports such as biking, skiing and surfboarding.
Create Professional-quality Movies With Great Editing Tools
