Intelligent 90x Zoom

Its impressive 50x optical zoom is capable of extending up to a formidable 90x digital zoom for even greater focal range.

This gives you the ability to capture objects and landscapes with incredible clarity, not possible with conventional zooms.

An advanced 5-axis Optical Image Stabilization system is built into the camera lens to eliminate handheld camera shake, producing blur free images and smooth videos even at higher zooming levels.

Level Shot Mode

A Wi-Fi connected smartphone can also be used to remotely operate the camera giving users the freedom to accurately compose photographs from unique angles and vantage points.

Wireless Multi Camera

The innovative Wi-Fi Multi Camera function enables you to capture multiple angles and viewpoints to create a unique footage. The V385 can be linked with up to three smartphones through Wi-Fi and simultaneously record up to two additional camera angles through the Wi-Fi connected smartphones. The two sub-windows appear as small picture-in-picture style displays to complement the main camera screen. The position of the two sub-windows can be interchanged and the display position can also be switched for better storytelling possibilities and improved creative flexibility.

You can see and speak to the baby using your smartphone and even configure a notification on your smartphone if the baby cries or when a sound is detected in the room.

2-Channel Stereo Microphone

The powerful zoom of the V385 is complimented with a sensitive 2-Channel stereo zoom microphone and has the ability to pick-up and record sounds of distant objects to match the footage being recorded while zooming.

3” LCD Touch Screen
