DESCRIPTION
1" Exmor RS CMOS Sensor
The Sony PXW-Z200 4K 1" CMOS Sensor XDCAM Camcorder features a 1.0"-type Exmor RS CMOS sensor that employs a stacked design to provide optimal image quality, fast readout speeds along with excellent low-light performance. 4K imagery is produced using 5K oversampling with full-pixel readout.
Longer 20x Optical Zoom
The PXW Z 200 captures views from wide angles to close-ups in tight spaces using the 20x G-Series zoom equivalent to 35mm full-frame 24-480mm.
The zoom range can easily be expanded to 30x in 4K and 40x in HD.
BIONZ XR Processing
Higher frame rates, faster autofocus, improved ATW control, and excellent noise reduction is possible with the implementation of the latest BIONZ XR TM image processor.
5K oversampling with full-pixel readout condenses a large amount of information to stunning UHD 4K60 video.
Advanced AI-Assisted Autofocus
Precise human-subject recognition is achieved by AI-assisted deep learning along with 81% coverage and the fast hybrid autofocus system offers better support for both Subject Recognition AF and real-time tracking.
Pro Broadcast and Film Looks
Presets for S-Cinetone, ITU709, 709tone, HLG Live, HLG Mild, and HLG Natural can further be adjusted with black, matrix, and other adjustments. Footage coming out of the Sony PXW-Z200 can easily be colour-matched to other Sony broadcast and Cinema Line cameras.
Auto Framing
The Auto Framing Function can be activated to easily keep track of the subject. This function automatically recognises humans and adjusts the frame to keep them centred in the frame.
This is especially useful for solo shooters with this function taking the place of manual capture while you engage with the subject.
Flexible Frame Rates
The Sony PXW-Z200 4K 1" CMOS Sensor XDCAM Camcorder enables you to capture up to UHD 4K60 video along with high frame rates of up to UHD 4K120 and 1080p HD at 240 fps. Slow motion rates include 4x at 4K30 and 5x at 4K24p with high-speed autofocus to keep your subject sharp.
Built-In Variable ND Filter
The Sony PXW Z200 4K 1" CMOS Sensor XDCAM Camcorder features a variable ND filter with a 1/4 to 1/128 ND range. This filter function enables you to adjust your exposure simply with the twist of a dial.
Full Auto Mode
In fast-paced shoots you can switch to a fully automatic function using a single switch, this automatically adjusts functions including ND, Iris, Gain, Shutter, and White Balance.
Live Streaming
Using a Wi-Fi connection or a wired Ethernet connection you can stream directly from the camera to compatible platforms using RTMP/RTMPS and SRT protocols.
Easy File Transfers
You are able to upload proxy and original clips straight from a memory card to a cloud or FTP server. Simply register a designation server in the camera, and then clips are automatically transferred when recording stops.
12G-SDI Connectivity
The Sony PXW-Z200's interface includes up to 12G-SDI input and output, timecode input and output, genlock, USB-A, USB-C, LAN, REMOTE, and additional connectors.
Advanced Image Stabilization
To ensure footage with minimal shake, you also have built-in image stabilisation. Your shot will look like you used a gimbal when using Active Mode that used both optical and electronic elements.
OLED Viewfinder and 3.5" LCD
The PXW Z 200 includes an OLED viewfinder providing a clear 2.36MP view while blocking ambient light, along with a 3.5" articulated LCD for monitoring with a sun hood included.
Recording Options
Multiple recording options are available to select the best solution for each project. XAVC S-I produces the best quality, 10-bit 4:2:2 4K (QFHD) provides a post-friendly recording. Recording using Intra-Frame XAVC HS-L (H.265) and XAVC S-L (H.264) provide a choice of 4:2:2 or 4:2:0 with Long GOP recording provides file-saving efficiency and longer recording times. XAVC HS enables the recording of smaller proxy files (up to 16 Mbps) for previewing and editing.
Dual Memory Card Slots
Dual memory card slots can be found that are compatible with both CFexpress Type A cards as well as SD cards.
Wireless Remote Control and Monitoring
The Monitor and Control App can be used with built-in Wi-Fi connectivity. With this, you can check your framing and monitor and adjust camera controls.
4-Channel Audio
Uo to four channels for audio recording can be used by combining the MI (multi-interface) shoe and the XLR connectors. Audio dials let you quickly adjust levels for two channels without needing to scroll through a menu.
Sony Battery Power
The Sony PXW-Z200 4K 1" CMOS Sensor XDCAM Camcorder uses the BP-U35, BP-U70, or BP-U100 battery packs like many cameras in Sony's lineup allowing you to use your existing supply of batteries.
