## Questions & Answers

**Q: What is the maximum distance for zoom? we video our stage from about 80ft back. currently running cannon xl1 with 16x lens.**
A: I looked up that camera and it has an effective 35mm focal range of 38mm to 620mm.  The X70 has an effective focal range of 29mm to 348mm.  This is due to the larger sensor size of the X70.  The trade-off is shallower depth of field for reduced focal length.

**Q: Can this be used as a webcam? if so, what do I need?**
A: You will need a Magwell SDI to USB converter for Web streaming.

**Q: How do I upgrade to 4k?**
A: You will need to go to Sony.com and Search for the camera model. You will have a link to purchase the 4k  upgrade. Or look for others that offer the upgrade here is a link to Bh-   Hhttp://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1158444-REG/sony_cbkz_x70fx_4k_upgrade_license.html

**Q: If I need to order a wall charger for this camera, what charger should I order?**
A: Battery Charger for Sony NP-FV30, NP-FV50, NP-FV50A, NP-FV70, NP-FV70A, NP-FV100, NP-FV100A InfoLithium V Series

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐ Very disappointed!
*by B***N on 23 April 2024*

The camera is very visible used, and one part of the camera is broken, also I have received a battery that actually is not even for this camera!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Camera
*by M***O on 6 January 2026*

This is my 2nd Sony X70. It's a great compact camera with multiple record format options. The image is fantastic, even when the gain is bumped up. You cannot go wrong with this camera in your gear bag!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Like Shawn Johnson! Little but Powerful
*by A***Y on 10 June 2015*

This camera exceeds my expectations! PICTURE The images this camera generates are fantastic. The dynamic range is rich and accurate and it's got plenty of HD formats to choose from. HANDLING Very nice feel with well thought buttons. SIZE This is a BIG camera in a very SMALL body, just like Shawn Johnson, the strength of a football player packed in a tiny body. Very easy to carry around. It's just heavy enough to achieve a good balance in my hand. ZOOM Good, not awesome. CODEC I haven't had any trouble. Once you download Sony Catalyst Browser it gets pretty easy. LOW LIGHT Great. Subtle grain starts showing at 18 DB...not too shabby. AUDIO Awesome. 2 XLR's, plenty of controls, excellent built-in mic. 4K Purchase and installation can be a little bit challenging but once done (15 min.) It works great! FEATURES Lots of features, my favorites are the Picture Profile variety, Histogram on the screen, XLR inputs, Built-in ND filters, HDMI out, just to mention some. PICTURE STABILITY Excellent near to awesome. AUTO FOCUS Medium fast but very good. Extremely accurate. MANUAL FOCUS Very slow, you need to turn the ring MANY times to be able to focus on anything. Overall, a very powerful little camera. I do recommend it!
