The XR520 combines serious performance with smart features to deliver exceptional picture quality. Its pairing of the advanced Sony G Lens and sensitive Exmor R CMOS sensor brings a new level of creative possibility to your filming.

The same goes for stills. A 12 megapixel resolution your photos will look as good as those from a high–quality digital camera. And with Smile Shutter automatically snapping every smile, you’ve got more memories to look back on. Sony has achieved a world first by introducing GPS technology to a select number of camcorders, including the XR520. Geotagged stills and videos enrich your viewing experience, letting you retrace your memories as interactive online maps.
