A new feature of the HXR-NX5U is Active SteadyShot. This useful feature
effectively reduces hand-held camera shake. The improvement is particularly
noticeable when using wide-angle framing. It is an essential feature when
holding the camcorder by hand, and especially for projects that are recorded
mainly in the field. It is also ideal when the subject is moving and must be
followed, for example in news gathering or at weddings. Shooting from inside
a moving vehicle is another useful application for the Active SteadyShot
feature. It significantly reduces the need for external stabilization systems.
Improved stabilization allows the user to concentrate more on composition
and shot transition, rather than worry about how to stabilize the camera.
Depending on the shooting environment, users can select normal SteadyShot
feature or Active SteadyShot feature for hand-held applications. When not in
use, the stabilization feature can be easily switched off.
