Handycam time to repeatedly refine

Carl Zeiss lenses
For the best possible supply of
CCD
incoming light, nearly all Sony
camcorders rely on a master
lens from Carl Zeiss. ZEISS
deliver with precision-crafted
glass for world-class image
definition. Two ZEISS lenses
lead the field: the super-com-
pact Vario-Tessar ensures even
they're recorded. From capture and
conversion to signal noise reduction,
the technology is flawless and the
results are sublime. Make your
movies with a Sony Handycam and
you'll see what we mean.
our smallest models record the
sharpest images, while the
Vario-Sonnar T* lens uses
ZEISS' own advanced T* lens
coating to virtually eliminate
ghosting and flaring. For the

tions, turn to page 27.
C a p t u r i n g
CCD technology
Light captured by the lens goes
straight to the CCD, which is
where Sony's record-breaking
chip technology comes into
play. Our chips give you up to
3.3 megapixels for that trade-
mark Sony image accuracy (as
a rule, the more pixels, the bet-
ter the image quality). Most
Sony CCDs also feature our
electronic image stabilisation
technology, so it won't matter if
you wobble while you're
recording. Gyroscopic sensors
automatically alert the CCD,
which corrects excess shaking
at the moment of capture.
