High Contrast 0.27" EVF and 3.0 ” Xtra Fine LCD with WhiteMagic
The FDR-AX53 employs a newly designed high contrast.
27” EVF, using four dual-surface spherical lenses, allows for a 33-degree wide angle view that is amazingly clear through the edge of the view finder. The high-precision 3.0 ” Xtra Fine LCD features a WhiteMagic display that uses white pixels in addition to RGB pixels to boost screen brightness, allowing users to see subtle details and tones on the screen in all types of shooting environments, including outdoors.
Balanced Optical SteadyShot Image Stabilization
On standard Optical SteadyShot camcorders a single “shift lens” is moved in the optical block to offset camera shake. Balanced Optical SteadyShot moves the entire optical block at once, maintaining the integrity of the optical path and reducing shake and distortion in videos and still photos. BOSS has now been improved to offer 5-xis stabilization from wide angle to telephoto.
ZEISS Lens with 20x Optical Zoom
This new lens helps to depict remarkable details of high-quality 4K images throughout its wide-angle-to-telephoto range. The use of an advanced aspherical lens not only keeps depiction faithful, it also keeps the lens unit compact. Extra-low Dispersion lens helps to ensure accurate reproduction of color.
Multilayer ZEISS T* Coating further enhances image quality by reducing unwanted reflection, such as ghost and flare. Whether you're shooting movies or still images this professional wide-angle 26.8 mm ZEISS lens captures more breathtaking landscapes and indoor scenes, when you don't have enough room to step back. With a 20x Optical zoom.
Premium 5 Directional Mic for Realistic Sound Reproduction

This enables the camera to reproduce clearer sound, yielding up to 40% less noise and is twice as effective as a 2ch stereo and three times as effective as 5.1 ch surround sound performance. This makes it possible to faithfully reproduce audio with clearly defined separation. Advanced sound features such as Auto Wind Noise Reduction and Premium Closer Voice make it even easier to attain ideal sound quality in various situations.
