The new lens covers 24mm wide angle to 480mm telephoto with a maximum aperture of F2.8-F4.5. The models can achieve 30x (4K) and 40x (HD) zoom with no noise using Sony’s Clear Image Zoom technology. Both cameras have new foldable viewfinders, removable microphone holders, and foldable 3.5in LCD monitors.
