This Sony’s camera is an advanced shoulder camcorder that records a variety of professional broadcast quality formats including XAVC-L at 50p and 59.94p. It offers exceptional weight balance, low power consumption, excellent networking features, and high picture quality. Detailed design dramatically reduces the load on the operator’s right-arm. It supports Sony viewfinders including the QHD LCD CBK-VF02. The camcorder also offers improved network connectivity, with the built-in wireless module, easy Wi-Fi setup, and operation via a mobile or tablet. Download Sony’s Content Browser Mobile application to use all the features. SD or HD-SDI input supports pool feed recording.

Shooting in Full HD plus 4K options

The PXW-X400 supports a variety of formats including HD XAVC Intra 1080 59.94p/50p and XAVC Long GOP at 59.94p/50p. With the optional CBK-Z450UK upgrade kit, the camcorder also supports 4K QFHD as XAVC Intra and XAVC Long GOP at 50p/59.94p.

Ergonomic design

Designed to minimise power consumption, and helps to reduce the weight load on the right-arm.

Improves network connectivity

Connectivity features include a built-in wireless module, RJ-45 Ethernet 100B-T connection and NFC function for easy Wi-Fi setup. The camcorder’s SDI input allows SD-SDI or HD-SDI pool feed recording up to 1.5Gbps.

Manual Focus Lens Kit Model

Three 2/3-inch-type Exmor CMOS sensors XDCAM weight-balanced advanced shoulder camcorder with improved network connectivity and low power consumption, plus 20x manual focus zoom lens kit.

Lower power consumption

By optimising the design of the hardware, the lightweight PXW-X400 has a low power consumption of 22W (when the wireless function if off, without lens and viewfinder). This enables continuous recording operation for approximately 240 minutes with Sony’s BP-GL95A optional standard-type battery.

Flexible camera system operation

The CA-FB70 Optical Fiber Camera Adaptor or the CA-TX70 Digital Triax Camera Adaptor can be attached to the PXW-X400 for live camera operation. The CA-FB70 enables the PXW-X400 to transmit signals via an optical fibre cable up to 250 m between the CA-FB70 and HXCU-FB70 Optical Fibre Camera Control Unit (CCU) with power and signal transmission. The CA-TX70 transmits signals via triax cable up to 600 m* between the CA-TX70 and HXCU-TX70 Digital Triax Camera Control Unit.
