Backlight Correction HDR

Don’t miss a single detail in high contrast shots. The built in backlight correction analyzes
the image and automatically adjusts accordingly to give you a perfectly lit shot. Backlight
Correction HDR helps correct for this by taking three pictures at dierent exposure settings and
processing the best elements of each into a single image for more natural looking shots.

3D Still Image and 3D Sweep Panorama™ mode

Produce awe-inspiring images with 3D still image and 3D Sweep Panorama™ capabilities.4
Photos will take on a new dimension of creative capabilities for viewing the world in a whole new
way.

Intelligent Sweep Panorama™ mode

With Intelligent Sweep Panorama™ mode just press the shutter, pan the landscape and let the
camera do the rest. It automatically links together each frame to produce a high resolution
panoramic image providing the ability to zoom in on small details. This model even detects
faces and moving subjects to stitch intelligently dierent widths to help avoid subject distortion.

Hi-speed Linear Focus

Life moves fast, your camera’s focus needs to move just as fast. The Hi-speed linear focus
achieves dramatically clearer images with an auto focus that moves just as fast as your life.

Background Defocus

DSLR photographs are oen beautiful because they blur the background, putting the emphasis
on your subject. Now our point-and-shoot cameras can deliver this signature DSLR benet. The
system takes two shots, identies the background and applies a defocused background keeping
the subject crisp and clear.

Superior Auto mode

Get cleaner, more dynamic pictures and fewer missed shots. The camera automatically
recognizes the correct scene mode, then quickly shoots and combines up to six shots to produce
images with greater clarity, optimum dynamic range using backlight correction HDR technology
and lower image noise using 6 shots layering technology. Superior Auto intelligently detects 33
scenes for still images and 44 scenes for movies, making it easy to get the best shot.

Digital Zoom

Capturing the right shot at the right moment has never been so easy. Digital zoom brings you
right close up to the action so you can get that perfect shot, every time.

Optical SteadyShot™ image stabilization

Optical SteadyShot™ image stabilization uses a built-in gyro sensor to detect camera shake and
automatically shis the lens to help prevent blur without sacricing image quality.

So Skin mode

Portrait subjects will love the results. So Skin mode recognizes skin tones and reduces the
appearance of blemishes and wrinkles without aecting the rest of the shot.

Natural Flash

Conventional point-and-shoot camera ash shots just don't capture colors the way the eye sees
them. Natural Flash mode takes a reference shot without ash and then uses that reference to
correct the color, for far more lifelike images.

HDMI® output

The High-Denition Multimedia Interface® (HDMI) is a compact audio/video connector interface
for transmitting uncompressed digital streams. HDMI connects digital audio/video sources such
as a compatible camcorder, Blu-ray Disc™ player, a personal computer, a video game console,
or an AV receiver to a compatible digital audio device and/or video monitor such as a digital
television (DTV). Easily connect your Cyber-shot
HDMI compatible device to easily enjoy and upload content.
