The Sony HXR-NX800 4K Professional Video Camera is designed for creators who need dependable, broadcast-ready quality without the weight or complexity of larger rigs. Combining Sony’s latest imaging technology with professional connectivity, it’s ideal for event videographers, educators, houses of worship, and content creators seeking reliability and ease of use.
At its core sits a 1-inch Exmor RS CMOS stacked sensor paired with the BIONZ XR image processor, capturing stunning 4K UHD (3840 × 2160) video at up to 60 p with high dynamic range and exceptional colour. The larger sensor size ensures smooth tonal gradation, shallow depth of field, and excellent low-light performance, producing footage that looks polished straight from camera.
The integrated 12× optical zoom Zeiss Vario-Sonnar T* lens (equivalent to 29–348 mm) offers flexible framing from wide interviews to distant subjects. With Clear Image Zoom, reach can be extended to 18× in 4K and 24× in Full HD with minimal image degradation.
Autofocus is powered by Sony’s Fast Hybrid AF system using up to 273 phase-detection points, ensuring quick, precise tracking — particularly useful for one-person crews. Adjustable focus transition and sensitivity settings provide smooth racking for cinematic results.
The NX800 records in multiple professional codecs including XAVC S-I (All-Intra) and XAVC HS (H.265) for efficient 10-bit 4:2:2 capture. Dual SDXC slots allow relay or simultaneous recording, giving you backup security on long shoots.
Colour science is derived from Sony’s Cinema Line, featuring S-Cinetone, S-Log3, and HLG (Hybrid Log-Gamma) for HDR workflows. Whether you’re delivering straight to clients or grading in post, the NX800 gives you consistent, filmic results.
Audio is handled via dual XLR/TRS inputs on a detachable top handle, supporting 24-bit Linear PCM recording. Combined with a built-in stereo mic and manual level controls, it ensures clear, professional sound on set.
Connectivity includes 3G-SDI, HDMI Type-A, USB-C streaming, and Wi-Fi / Bluetooth for live production or tethered control. The camera also offers USB UVC/UAC output, enabling direct plug-and-play streaming without additional hardware — perfect for hybrid events or lectures.
The ergonomic design includes three independent control rings (focus, zoom, iris), an intuitive 3.5-inch touchscreen LCD, and a 0.39-inch OLED EVF for precise monitoring. Built to withstand professional use, the body features magnesium alloy construction and weather resistance for dependable operation in the field.
Compact, capable, and packed with pro tools, the Sony HXR-NX800 delivers true broadcast quality in a portable, versatile package — built for professionals who need power they can trust.The Sony HXR-NX800 4K Professional Video Camera is designed for creators who need dependable, broadcast-ready quality without the weight or complexity of larger rigs.
