This functionality facilitates creative storytelling, enabling filmmakers to include different angles and contexts within a single shot. The HC-W850 also shares the same advanced BSI sensor and 20x optical zoom as the HC-V750, ensuring high-quality imagery.

Both models support recording in full HD (1920x1080) with various frame rates, including 60p, which provides smooth motion and improved detail during fast-paced scenes. The integrated Wi-Fi connectivity allows for easy sharing and remote control via smartphones or tablets, making it convenient for users to manage their recordings.
