They are also the world’s smallest and thinnest AVCHD capable cameras.

These are the first Cyber-shot cameras with an in-camera Backlight Correction High Dynamic Range (HDR) feature, “for managing difficult lighting situations” and TransferJet wireless technology for sharing, storing and viewing images. The HX5V model is also includes GPS + Compass and Optical SteadyShot with Active Mode technologies.
