Creative options and best-in-class technology
Flexible new slow motion and burst effects let you adjust the frame rate while you film. Slow down the candle blowing on the cake or speed up your friend’s dive. An easy-to-activate in-camera light priority mode, combined with enhanced backlighting correction, ensures natural, well-lit shots. Both of these settings help the camera analyze the image, determining whether all the details are clearly visible and whether the scene has enough contrast, especially if it’s brightly lit.
A high-resolution 7.5 cm color touch screen display makes navigation through menus and interfaces quicker and easier. And for easy filming, turn on Auto Scene Selection, which picks the best settings. With long battery life and internal memory for all LEGRIA HF R86 and LEGRIA HF R88, you’ll never have to interrupt your movies before they’re ready.

All of the new range features a powerful five-axis Intelligent IS system, which compensates for camera shake even at high zoom speeds. Whether you’re trying to capture your baby’s first steps or a beach volleyball match, you can even run with your camera.
And your video clips will be smooth and crisp. And if the most important thing happens far away, the 32x optical zoom, powerful 57x Advanced zoom and Auto Zoom Framing Assist keep the distant subject in focus. Audio Scene Selection function selects the optimum settings for each shooting situation – adding realistic soundscape to your movies.
The LEGRIA HF R88 comes with the WA-H43 wide angle adaptor, which lets you shoot sweeping landscapes or small rooms.
