Cyber
-shot®
Digital Still Camera
Easier to Use, Doubly Effective at Reducing Blur. With huge 3.0”LCD screen and simple touch-screen
operation, the Sony Cyber-shot® DSC-T50 also provides 7.2 MP resolution, Super SteadyShot
®
stabilization and high sensitivity for low-light shooting, Slide Show with select music playback
, 56 MB
Internal Memory, up to 400-shot Stamina® power.
High-
Tech, Super
-Slim Styling
The DSC-T50 comes in a ultra-compact
case that expresses your personal style
in a choice of three designer colors -matte silver, sleek black or blazing red.
It’s also small enough to stay close at
hand anywhere you roam.
7.2 MP Super HAD
™ CCD
Another step up in megapixel
performance gives you greater detail
for making large prints or cropping in
tightly on your subject --
with the
advanced Sony Super HAD™ (Hole
Accumulated Diode) CCD design,
more light passes to each pixel for
increased sensitivity and reduced noise.
Huge 3.0”Clear Photo LCD Plus™
Screen
It’s an amazingly big screen for such a
small, slim-line camera -- styled to fit
flush against the camera back for a
clean
-line look, with bright Clear Photo
LCD Plus™
design and touch-screen
operation that make it easier to adjust
camera menus, set up shots and share
results even in bright sunlight.
Slide Show with Select Music
Playback
The DSC-T50 lets you view in-camera
images in Slide Show sequence, with
one
-button operation, selectable
transition effects and up to four music
background tracks that make it more
entertaining to share your memories
with family and friends. You can even
use supplied Music Transfer software to
add your own favorite music.
Super SteadyShot® Optical Image
Stabilization
The Sony Super SteadyShot® system
detects camera movement and sends
correcting signals to a stabilization lens
to prevent image blur and reduce the
effect of camera shake
-- an advantage
when shooting with such a small
camera.
Higher Sensitivity
Sometimes flash can change the mood
-- so the DSC-T50 provides high
sensitivity (ISO 1000) for excellent lowlight shots at higher shutter speed and
for capturing images in museums or
religious sites where flash may not be
permitted. The Sony Clear RAW™ Noise
Reduction system also counters the
picture noise traditionally associated
with high ISO.
Carl Zeiss
® 3X Optical/2X Precision
Digital Zoom
With 56 MB Internal Memory, the DSC
T50 allows you to shoot photos without
a flash memory card so you can
always get your shot even if you forgot
your card. You can easily transfer your
images from camera memory to
optional Memory Stick Duo™ media,
upload shots to your computer or
make prints on your digital printer.
Stamina® Power
A supplied NP-FR1 InfoLITHIUM®
rechargeable battery lets you shoot up
to 400 pictures
on a full charge,
recharges quickly and easily, and
shows you about how much shooting
time remains.
14X Smart Zoom®
Feature (at VGA
Resolution)
The Cyber-shot
® DSC-T50 intelligently
“crops into” the central portion of
interest in your photo without sacrificing
full CCD resolution -- avoiding the
image degradation of other digital
zooms.
Real Imaging Processor™ LSI
To improve camera response and
extend battery life, the Sony Real
Imaging Processor LSI (Large Scale
Integrated) circuit decreases shutter lag,
improves picture quality and clarity,
and increases battery stamina.
Memory Stick Duo™ Media
The DSC-T50 has a built-in slot for
optional Memory Stick Duo™ media
that provides ultra-compact, highcapacity shooting and recording.
MPEG Movie VX Fine Mode
The DSC-
T50 can capture VGA (640 x
480) audio/video clips at high frame
rate (up to 30 frames per second5), with
length limited only by the capacity of
your media.
Picture Motion Browser Software
Supplied software makes it easier to
upload, organize and search photos
on your PC -- and provides a
convenient map view function to sort
photos by location and display their
origin on a world map by using an
optional GPS unit.
