Sony DSC-HX7V Feature Highlights |
|

color in the display, all while being thinner than most LCDs.
|
|

smooth motion video with less distortion for playback on Blu-ray Disc players,
Sony PlayStation 3 systems and compatible PCs and HDTVs3.
|

The Sony 10x optical zoom G lens brings distant subjects super close for great
outdoors, sports, and travel photos. The compact size makes it easy to take with
you in a pocket, purse, or backpack.

|
16.2 Megapixel Back-illuminated “Exmor R” CMOS
Image Sensor
The DSC-HX7V features a 16.2 megapixel “Exmor R” CMOS image sensor that brings
out the full resolving power of the camera’s Sony G lens to deliver extremely
fast speed, high resolution, and stunning low-light sensitivity with improved
image clarity and drastically reduced grain. In addition, the combined “Exmor R”
CMOS sensor and BIONZ™ image processor delivers extremely fast 10fps, Anti
Motion Blur, Hand-held Twilight and 1080i movie modes7.
|
Background Defocus
DSLR photographs are often beautiful because they blur the background, putting
the emphasis on your subject. Now our point-and-shoot cameras can deliver this
signature DSLR benefit. The system takes two shots, identifies the background
and applies a defocused background keeping the subject crisp and clear.
|
3D still image and panorama
Produce awe-inspiring images with 3D still image and 3D Sweep Panorama
capabilities5. Photos will take on a new dimension of
creative capabilities for viewing the world in a whole new way.
|
iSweep Panorama
With iSweep Panorama just hold the shutter, pan the landscape and let the camera
do the rest. It automatically links together each frame to produce a panoramic
image. This model even detects faces and moving subjects to stitch intelligently
different widths to help avoid subject distortion.
|
|
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.
|
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 different exposure settings and processing the best elements
of each into a single image for more natural looking shots.
|
GPS and Compass
An integrated GPS receiver and compass record the location and direction of
every shot you take and let you view your images on a map with compatible
computer and internet applications, so you can remember where you took your
favorite shots.
|
Digital Zoom
Capturing the right shot at the right moment has never been so easy. Digital
zoom brings the action up close to 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 shifts the lens to help prevent blur without
sacrificing image quality.
|
Soft Skin mode
Portrait subjects will love the results. Soft Skin mode recognizes skin tones
and reduces the appearance of blemishes and wrinkles without affecting the rest
of the shot.
|
Natural Flash
Conventional point-and-shoot camera flash shots just don't capture colors the
way the eye sees them. Natural Flash mode takes a reference shot without flash
and then uses that reference to correct the color, for far more lifelike images.
|
|
HDMI output
The High-Definition 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 camera via HDMI cable to any compatible HDMI
compatible device to easily enjoy and upload content7.
|
|
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.
|
|
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.
|
Anti-blink Function
It’s frustrating to capture the perfect shot, only to review it later and
discover subjects blinked during the photo. 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.
|
|
TransferJet technology
TransferJet technology, developed by Sony and advanced and promoted by
consortium of 18 other companies, allows you to transfer up to ten files between
two TransferJet enabled devices just by touching their TransferJet logos
together, without the hassle of hunting for cables or the complication of
pairing6.
