The built-in 16.7x (optical) / 23x (Intelligent) zoom lens starts out nice and wide at 35.8mm (35mm equivalent), so indoor shooting does not become a challenge to see how deeply into the corner you can smash yourself.With a large grip and zoom lever and a large, easy-to-hold manual focus ring, you've got accessible, precise controls and a zebra pattern assists you in setting exposure. In addition to extensive manual controls, there's also Intelligent Auto (IA) and Hybrid optical image stabilization, providing the high-tech help you need to ensure smooth, reliably crisp & clear capture of Full HD video.
