7.2 MP Super HAD™ CCD
Step-up
More megapixels give you more detail and
definition when you make big prints or crop
in tight on your subject. The advanced
Sony® Super HAD™ (Hole Accumulated
Diode) CCD design allows more light to pass
to each pixel, increasing sensitivity and
reducing noise.
Carl Zeiss® 3X Optical Zoom Lens Design
A top-quality Carl Zeiss® 3X Optical zoom
lens design helps the DSC-W55 bring
distant subjects closer and lets you frame
shots quickly for better composition -- a
real advantage for family sports, outdoor
fun and travel photos.

The DSC-W55 provides a large, bright LCD
screen for composing shots, checking
results, sharing your photos on location and
reading camera setup menus even in full
sunlight.
High Sensitivity Mode
With high sensitivity of ISO 1000, the DSC-
W55 gives you better shots in low light so
you can shoot without flash to preserve the
mood -- great for birthday parties, indoor
gatherings and candid portraits.
Clear RAW™ Noise Reduction
The original Sony Clear RAW™ NR (Noise
Reduction) image processing technology
helps suppress color noise that can
accompany high-sensitivity shooting.
56 MB Internal Memory
The DSC-W55 allows you to capture a large
number of images without a flash memory
card, so it's great for traveling or for quick
candid snapshots.
