Variable ND filter 
The PXW-X180 is the first professional Sony camcorders to feature a continuously variable ND filter. A new filter device that electronically controls density enables continuous adjustment from 1/4 ND to 1/128 ND via a simple dial operation.

The PXW-X180 is equipped with a 3.5-type QHD LCD panel (960 x 540 xRGB, 16:9) that provides easy viewing in a wide range of lighting conditions. Both models also feature a 0.5-type OLED viewfinder (1024 x 768 xRGB, 4:3). High resolution makes precise manual focus easy. Compared to LCOS devices, there is no color breakup and viewing comfort is significantly improved. 

Wireless functions for file transmission and remote control 
Near Field Communication (NFC) functions allow easy, one-touch wireless LAN connection to a smartphone or tablet. The Content Browser Mobile application enables confirmation of the angle of the shot before shooting, monitor recording and remote operation of the camcorder (field angle/white balance/iris, etc.). The use of mobile routers (sold separately) and other mobile devices also allows transmission of files after shooting. In addition, lightweight proxy video files can be generated separately from the main line recording and recorded to SD cards for quick sharing of content over low-bandwidth mobile networks. 

Multi-Interface Shoe 
Compatible accessories attached to the Multi-Interface (MI) Shoe can be controlled from the PXW-X180. The HVL-LBPC video light, for example, can be switched on and off from the camcorder. Power and audio connections for a UWP-D11 or UWP-D12 wireless microphone receiver are made via the MI Shoe, minimizing the need for extra batteries and additional cabling.
