Shoot movies at 1080/60i with stereo sound, recording instantly with a dedicated movie-recording button. High performance vibration reduction keeps your movies smooth.

Advanced movie functions use optical zoom and autofocus during filming, shoot stills while you’re recording, and edit movies in-camera to delete unwanted footage. For more creative movies you can film in slow or fast motion, or use the record pause function to take a break in filming and then resume shooting the same movie.

Retouch menu: have fun with a range of special effects to enhance your photos after shooting. Try Super Vivid to heighten colour saturation, Soft Portrait to blur the background and make the subject stand out, or Selective Colour for a pop of your chosen colour on monochrome.

Remote control via Wi-Fi: with built-in Wi-Fi you can use your smart device² as a remote control, making it easy to set up portraits and group shots. You can also transfer images automatically to your smart device for sharing.

Auto HDR mode: your camera combines two shots taken at different exposures in a single shutter release, creating a single image with wide dynamic range and rich colour gradation.

Smart Portrait Syste Smile Timer takes the shot when your subject smiles, Blink Proof alerts you if someone’s eyes were closed, and Red-Eye Fix corrects false colour due to flash – for both people and pets.

Advanced Glamour Retouch: create perfect portraits with enhancements that are truly glamorous. Whiten teeth and eyes, soften skin tones and even add makeup like lipstick, mascara and eye shadow.

Easy Panorama 360°/180°: make the most of stunning scenery by tilting vertically or panning horizontally to create dynamic panoramas.

High speed continuous shooting: always be ready to capture fast-action moments or fleeting facial expressions with continuous shooting of up to 5 shots at a fast 7.5 fps.

Pre AF mode: activating immediately, Pre AF shortens autofocus time and gives crisp results even at full zoom or in low light. Early subject detection means you’re always ready to shoot sharply.

18 scene modes: your camera automatically optimises settings for popular photography styles, effects and locations, so all you need to do is choose the scene that best matches your shooting situation.

Scene Auto Selector: let your camera do the work for you, as it chooses from a range of typical scenes to automatically optimise settings for your shooting conditions, so you’re guaranteed to get great results.

Target Finding AF: fast and precise autofocus captures your subjects perfectly so you can concentrate on the creative part – composing your ideal photo.
