Q: QuestionDoes this camera have IR?

Asked 2 years ago by Anonymous.

• A:Answer Hi, Sony commitment to customer satisfaction is our top priority. Yes, the PXWZ90V has Infrared Light that would allow you to shoot on very dark scenes. You can turn it on by pressing the Menu button, then select CAMERA SET. Choose NIGHSHOT, then select ON. Remember to remove the lens hood so that it does not block the IR emitter. The light is effective for up to a distance of approximately 3 meters or 10 feet. For any questions or concerns, you can reach us at 239-245-6360.  Regards, Larry Sony Social Support
