Generous 3.0-inch (230K pixels) Clear Photo LCD display features sharp, natural
color that makes it easy to compose shots, read menus, and view photos, even in
bright sunlight.
Self-Portrait Timer
Self-Portrait Timer helps take the guesswork out of self portraits by utilizing
Face Detection technology to recognize when your face enters the frame. Once the
camera detects your face, it triggers a 2-second timer, and then snaps a
picture.
Sweep Panorama mode
Reach beyond the traditional wide angle lens, and capture more breathtaking
shots with Sweep Panorama Mode. Simply press the shutter button and sweep the
camera in the desired direction and the camera continuously shoots at a high
speed, then seamlessly stitches the images together with automatic position
adjustment to create one stunning panoramic image. Available in wide and
ultra-wide options, the camera can take panoramic shots of up to 243 degrees.
Now capturing wide landscapes is as easy as press and sweep.
HD MP4 Movie Mode
MP4 is a popular format for high definition video that compresses the size of
your audio and video, making your media files small enough to easily transfer to
your compatible PC or Mac. MP4 is also highly compatible with the Web, so you
can effortlessly upload your media to popular photo or video-sharing Web sites
like Photobucket or YouTube. (Compatible PC with internet capability required).
Intelligent Auto (iAuto) mode
Unlike traditional auto mode, Intelligent Auto (iAuto) mode thinks for you,
recognizing scenes, lighting conditions, and faces, and adjusts settings
resulting in clearer images, faces with more natural skin tone, and less blur.
By incorporating advanced features such as Intelligent Scene Recognition, Face
Detection technology, and Optical SteadyShot image stabilization, iAuto mode
lets you take advantage of the latest Sony Cyber-shot technology without leaving
auto mode. Whether you're shooting landscapes, capturing a beautiful flower, or
taking pictures at an in-door birthday party or wedding shower, iAuto mode will
optimize your camera's settings to help ensure you come away with a great shot.
Intelligent Scene Recognition (iSCN) Mode
Intelligent Scene Recognition (iSCN) Mode automatically detects eight different
types of scenes and, within just 1/30th of a second, selects the appropriate
camera settings: Backlight, Backlight Portrait, Twilight, Twilight Portrait,
Twilight using a tripod, Portrait, Landscape, and Macro. iSCN has two modes:
Auto and Advanced. In Auto Mode, the camera takes a single shot using the
optimal settings. In Advanced Mode, the camera takes a photo with the optimal
settings and, if in difficult lighting (low light or back light) immediately
takes a second photo with another optimized setting so you can choose which to
keep.
Anti-blink Function
It's frustrating to think you've captured that perfect shot, only to review it
later and discover one of your subjects blinked just as you pressed the shutter.
When the camera is set to Soft Snap, the Anti-blink function captures two
images, recording only the photo with less squinting or blinking. If a blink is
detected in other shooting modes, a warning will be displayed after you take the
shot.
Optical SteadyShot image stabilization
Optical SteadyShot image stabilization uses a built-in gyro sensor to detect
camera shake and automatically shifts the lens to help prevent blur without
sacrificing image quality.
High Sensitivity Mode (ISO 3200)
High ISO allows for faster shutter speed, so you can take photos indoors or in
low light without the need for a flash. In addition to High Sensitivity Mode
(ISO), you can select up to seven ISO settings (Auto, 100, 200, 400, 800, 1600,
3200) when shooting in Program Auto Mode to adjust sensitivity to your shooting
conditions.

Face Detection helps focus on the subject
|
Face Detection technology
Sony's Face Detection technology can automatically distinguish between children
and adults. Face Detection technology detects up to eight individual faces and
adjusts flash, focus, exposure, and white balance to help deliver crisp,
properly lit images of family and friends.
Motion Detection
Motion Detection, along with Face Motion Detection adjusts ISO sensitivity and
increases the shutter speed when movement is detected, reducing blur in moving
subjects and faces.
Smile Shutter technology
Smile Shutter technology captures a smile the moment it happens. Simply press
the Smile Shutter button and the camera does the rest. You can also select adult
and child priority and indicate the degree of Smile Detection Sensitivity.
Intelligent Scene Recognition can be used together with Smile Shutter mode. This
means that beautiful smiles can be captured with settings optimized for the
particular scene, even in difficult conditions such as twilight and
backlighting.
Dynamic Range Optimizer Standard and Plus
Dynamic Range Optimizer (DRO) Standard and Plus uses a sophisticated algorithm
to help recover shadows and highlights. The result is more natural images with
clearer details that more closely match what your naked eye sees. DRO is
particularly effective when shooting backlit portraits or any scene with a
dramatic contrast between background and foreground lighting. DRO Plus allows
for even greater optimization by analyzing each region of an image and
performing additional image processing.
Scene modes
The DSC-W370 features 10 convenient scene modes: High Sensitivity, Twilight,
Twilight Portrait, Soft Snap, Landscape, Beach, Snow, Fireworks, Gourmet, Pet.
Easy Shooting Mode
With Easy Shooting Mode, even beginners can take great photos. In Easy Shooting
Mode, easy-to-understand basic instructions are displayed on the LCD screen and
the camera switches to all automatic settings, removing several function choices
and allowing you to focus on just your subject. Since this mode works together
with Intelligent Scene Recognition, the camera selects the optimum setting for
each scene. In addition the easy mode simplifies preview mode.
