each pixel, increasing sensitivity and
reducing noise.

® 5X Optical Zoom Lens
5X optical zoom gives you the power
to get even closer to the action
-- a real
benefit for distant landscape views and
dramatic portraits.
Wide Angle Lens

Face Detection
Face Detection technology
automatically controls flash, focus,
exposure, and white balance to help
reveal faces in shadows, make skin
tones look more natural, reduce redeye, and eliminates harsh facial glare.
Smile Shutter Mode
Smile Shutter technology captures
smiles the moment they happen
. The
mode can be set to capture when your
subject laughs, smiles or even grins,
and like Face Detection Smile Shutter is
able to differentiate between children
and adults to set priority.

Sony Double Anti-Blur Solution
The combination of Super SteadyShot®
optical image stabilization and high
ISO sensitivity helps compensate for
shaky hands, minimizes blur, and allow
flash-
free shooting to preserve the
mood.
Super SteadyShot® Optical Image
Stabilization
Super SteadyShot® Image Stabilization
compensates for shaky hands and
minimizes blur with a built-in gyro
sensor that detects movement and
sends correcting signals to a
stabilization lens --
so there’s no need to
crop in on your shot to reduce blur.
High Sensitivity (ISO 3200) Mode
With high sensitivity of ISO 3200, you
can shoot effectively in low light
without flash to preserve the mood,
while the Sony Clear RAW™ Noise
Reduction system helps suppress the
color noise that can degrade low-light
shots.
Intelligent Scene Recognition Mode
Intelligent Scene Recognition mode
automatically detects 5 different types
of scenes and selects the appropriate
camera setting: Backlight, Backlight
Portrait, Twilight, Twilight Portrait,
Twilight using a Tripod. Intelligent Scene
Recognition has two different modes,
advanced and auto. In Advanced
mode, if the camera detects the
particular scene, it will take one more
picture. In Auto mode takes a single
shot, arbitrarily deciding on the proper
setting.
Dynamic Range Optimization Standard
& Plus
Powered by the exclusive Sony BIONZ
high-
speed processing engine,
Dynamic Range Optimization preserves
image data in bright highlights and
reveals more detail in shadows or
backlit areas --
for great results even in
difficult lighting conditions. New DRO
Plus mode enhances optimization,
analyzing each region of an image
and performing additional image
processing.

Convenient Photo Modes
To adjust quickly for specific shooting
situations, you can choose from several
convenient photo modes, including
Auto, Program Auto, and Scene
Selections such as Twilight, Twilight
Portrait, Fireworks, Smile Shutter,
Underwater, Landscape, Soft Snap,
Snow, High Sensitivity, and Beach
environments.
MPEG Movie VX Fine Mode
Capture VGA (640 x 480) audio/video
clips at a high frame rate (up to 30
frames per second
). The maximum
length of time you can shoot
continuously is about 10 minutes.
7
Automatic Macro Shooting
Standard Auto Focus now covers the
macro focus range, eliminating the
need to manually change focus modes
for close-up photography. The Macro
mode has not been eliminated, and
enabling it accelerates Auto Focus
when shooting at point-blank range.
9-Point Auto Focus
Because an off-center subject can make
your shot more interesting, a 9-point
auto focus measures auto
-focus at 9
precision points instead of 5 -- giving
you greater creative freedom to
compose your image.
