Nano Surface lens coating reduces ghosting and flare, and three manual control rings facilitate adjustments for focus, zoom and iris.

Geared Zoom Focus & Iris Rings: The lens features geared lens rings for zoom, focus, and iris, which provides you with manual control without having to select functions of a wheel, lever, or ring.

Variable Frame Rates: The AG-AC90AEN can record 1920x1080 resolution at 50p, 50i, and 25p; in addition to SD 576/50i.

LCD Touch Panel: The 3.5" touchscreen LCD has a 1,152,000 dot resolution and slides into the handle front for quick access. It rotates 270 for high-angel, low-angle, or self-shooting (in Mirror mode). Menu settings and playback can be controlled using the touchscreen display

Dual SD Memory Card Slots: Two media card slots accept SD memory cards for expanded memory or simultaneous recording to both cards for an instant backup. The AG-AC90A is compatible with SD, SDHC, and SDXC cards, with support for ultra high-speed UHS-I Speed Class 1 cards.

Five-Axis OIS and Pixel Shifting: Five-Axis optical image stabilization makes for smoother handheld videos, and pixel shifting helps to create a sharper image.

Pre Record prevents missed opportunities by storing about 3 seconds of video and audio data in temporary memory prior to pressing the Rec button. Record Check lets you check the end of the most recently recorded clip with one-touch ease, and Last Clip Delete provides one-touch delete of the most recently recorded clip.

XLR Input and Other Professional Audio Features: In addition to a built-in 5.1-channel surround sound mic, the AG-AC90A features 2-channel XLR audio input terminals for external mic use.

Professional Interfaces and Design: An HDMI output supports digital output of video and audio signals to a wide variety of HD devices. Other connections include an AV Multi output for analog video and audio, an analog component video (component terminal), analog composite video (pin jack), and analog audio (L/R pin jacks) through the bundled cable. USB 2.0 connectivity aids users in transferring files to a PC, and remote terminals enable remote operation of iris, focus, zoom and rec start/stop functions.

Focus Assist and Push AF: The Focus Assist (Focus in Red) button shows when your subject is in focus by outlining subject edges in red on the LCD monitor. Push AF activates the AF function while in Manual mode with the press of a button (allocated to a User button). This provides handy support for manual focusing.
