Stylish Color in Ultra-Slim Dimensions

With sleek metallic case in black, the
DSC-T20 makes a dramatic fashion
statement that fits any lifestyle -- and
also fits easily into your pocket,
briefcase, purse or handbag, so you’ll
always have a great little Sony Cyber­Shot® camera on hand to save your
memories.

8.1 MP Super HAD

™ CCD

More megapixels give you more detail
and definition when you make big
prints or crop in tight on your subject.
The advanced Sony® Super HAD™
(

Hole Accumulated Diode) CCD
design allows more light to pass to
each pixel, increasing sensitivity and
reducing noise.

Carl Zeiss

® 3X Optical Zoom Lens

Design

An ingenious Carl Zeiss® lens design
provides 3X Optical zoom in
amazingly compact dimensions -- and
even at full zoom the lens doesn’

t
project beyond the camera body,
preserving its ultra-slim styling.

Face Detection

By automatically controlling focus,
exposure, color and flash, this new Sony
feature reveals faces in shadow, makes
skin tones look more natural and
eliminates harsh facial glare -- to help
bring out every expression on every face
in every shot, so you’

ll capture the
personalities and emotions that make
memories come alive.

The Sony Double Anti-Blur Solution

With Super SteadyShot® Image
Stabilization and high sensitivity (ISO

3200), the DSC-T20 compensates for
shaky hands, minimizes blur, brightens
images and allows flash-free shooting
to preserve the mood -- and Sony Clear
RAW

™

Noise Reduction reduces the
picture noise that can ruin low-light
shots.

HD Output

Thanks to Sony, your photo album can
go high-def -- with direct HD output1 to
your HDTV screen, so you can view
DSC-T20 still photos in spectacular high
definition clarity and detail. Your life
never looked so exciting!

1

HD Slide Show with Music

It’

s the high

-definition viewing
experience that makes photos come
alive on HDTV screens, accompanied
by your choice of visual effects and any
of four preset musical selections stored
in memory or your favorite MP3 tunes
downloaded from PC to your camera
for use as background music.

9-Point Auto Focus

Because an off-center subject can make
your shot more interesting, the DSC-

T20

can measure auto

-focus precision at 9

points on your screen

-- giving you
greater creative freedom to compose
your image.

D-Range Optimization

The DSC-T20 lets you add creative
effects to photos after you shoot -­including soft edge filter to soften
backgrounds, cross filter to place starry
“dazzles” at highlight points, partial
color filter to mute surrounding colors,
even fish-eye filter to create interesting
fish-

eye lens effects.

In

-Camera Red-

Eye Reduction

Irritating “glowing eyes”

can ruin even
the most creative photos -- so the DSC­T20 provides in-camera correction at
the touch of a button to reduce
lingering red-

eye effect that other

systems might miss.

2.5”Clear Photo LCD Plus™

Screen

With its Clear Photo LCD Plus™ design,
the big, bright 2.5”

1 screen of the DSC

­T20 makes photos look more natural
when you’re sharing on location -- and
gives you adjustable brightness for
viewing even in bright sunlight.

2

Simple Setup Controls

A quick press of the Home button opens
your user

-friendly GUI -- and you can
select functions by simply moving a
cursor vertically or horizontally to the
appropriate icon. Function names and
the on

-screen Function Guide display
make it easier to learn camera setup
operations.

31 MB Internal Memory

The DSC-T20 allows you to capture a
large number of images without a flash
memory card, so it’s great for traveling
or for quick candid snapshots.

Memory Stick Duo™ Media
Convenience

A built-in slot accepts optional Memory
Stick Duo™ media or Memory Stick
PRO Duo™ media -- the compact, high­capacity storage media that make it
easily to upload photos to your
computer or make lab-quality prints at
home on your Sony Picture Station™
digital printer (sold separately).

15X Smart Zoom®

Feature

The Sony Smart Zoom®

feature

intelligently “crops into”

the central
portion of interest in your photo,
avoiding the image degradation of
other digital zooms.

MPEG Movie VX Fine Mode

Captures VGA (640 x 480) audio/video
clips at high frame rate (up to 30
frames per second
