High-Performance UHD 4K60 Capture
Packed with broadcast-friendly features, Sony's PXW-Z300 3-CMOS XDCAM Camcorder uses a 3-CMOS 1/2"-type sensor to capture up to UHD 4K60 video. It features advanced AI autofocus, improved network functions, video authentication, a high-bright, touchscreen LCD side V-mount, flexible LCD arm, HEVC proxies, and SRT streaming.
Agile News and Production Workflows
Features such as digital signature embedding for authenticity confirmation, efficient file transfer and streaming, and cloud connectivity enable fast, agile news and production workflows.
4K Exmor R CMOS Sensors and BIONZ XR Processor
The PXW-Z300's BIONZ XR image processor works with the three 4K Exmor R CMOS sensors in real time to capture finely detailed, lifelike images with excellent color reproduction, deep depth of field, and very low noise.
17x Zoom Lens
The 17x zoom lens provides a 30.3 to 515mm (35mm equivalent) range with a constant f/1.9 maximum aperture. A digital extender provides 2x, 3x, or 4x magnification in HD and 1.5x magnification in UHD 4K. The independent focus, iris, and zoom rings let you quickly make manual adjustments without needing to take your eye away from the viewfinder. You can even switch between autofocus and fully manual focus by sliding the focus ring forward or back.
Optical Image Stabilization
Built-in OIS (optical image stabilization) helps to minimize any blurring or camera shake when shooting handheld.
Look Matching
The PXW-Z300 supports S-Cinetone, ITU709, and 709tone looks presets for shooting in SDR (BT.709), plus HLG Live, HLG Mild, and HLG Natural as presets for HDR (HLG) for easy color matching with other Sony cameras. It also supports custom 3D LUT import for creating your own unique looks.
Versatile Recording and Format Options
- Dual SD card slots, Picture Cache buffering, Interval Recording, and Slow & Quick motion provide versatile capture options.
- Multiple recording formats include UHD 4K and HD at 24 to 60p and 50 and 60i HD selections.
- MXF recording in MPEG HD422 is supplemented by XAVC Intra, XAVC Long, and proxy MP4 options.
Side Accessory V-Mount
The integrated side V-mount provides a handy spot for attaching devices like a separate PDT-FP1 portable data transmitter, audio receiver, battery, or smartphone. This V-mount also incorporates a 1/4"-20 screw adapter.
Wireless Monitoring and Remote Control
Integrated 2.4/5 GHz Wi-Fi lets you check your frame before capture, monitor your shot, and control the camera using the free Monitor & Control app for smartphones and tablets.
Variable ND Filter
The PXW-Z300's electronically variable ND filter enables on-the-fly exposure adjustments from 1/4 to 1/128 ND without having to change the aperture on the lens or add an external filter. An automatic ND function maintains an optimum exposure when quickly moving between interiors and exteriors.
Video Authentication
The upcoming video authentication function will use C2PA compliance to ensure the credibility of video footage used in news gathering and field reporting.
NOTE: This feature will only be available in select countries and regions.

4-Channel Audio
A multi-interface port and XLR inputs let you capture up to four channels of audio with automatic and dial-based manual level control for each channel.
Network Connectivity
The PXW-Z300 supports quick, simple network configuration for managing files from capture to delivery. It uses Wi-Fi or a wired LAN connection with support for RJ45, 1000BASE-T, 100BASE-T, and 10BASE-T.
Simple File Transfers
Upload full-resolution or proxy video clips to a cloud or FTP server straight from the PXW-Z300's memory card. Once the destination is registered in the camera, files are transferred automatically when recording stops.
Power Options
Use widely available Sony BP-U series batteries or the locking USB-C PD (power delivery) port with a 100W or higher AC adapter to power the PXW-Z300 camera.
