Key Features

stunning low-light sensitivity with improved image clarity and drastically reduced grain with Sony's
back-illuminated ExmorR

®
light gathering area per pixel so you can shoot with better results in lower lighting conditions.
29.8mm wide angle Carl Zeiss
From the authority in lens technology, the Carl Zeiss
29.8mm wide angle so you can get everything you want in the shot.
27x Optical/54x Clear Image Zoom to get even closer to the action
Get amazingly close with 27x optical zoom plus 54x Clear Image digital zoom. Most digital zooms
use electronic cropping to get closer to the subject, resulting in unsharp images. With Clear
Image Zoom the powerful processor compares patterns found in adjacent pixels and creates
new pixels to match selected patterns, resulting in more realistic, higher-quality images. Clear
Image Zoom doubles optical zoom for closer photos and video.
2.7" Clear Photo LCD™ display (230K)
The 2.7" (16:9) Clear Photo LCD™ (230K) displays sharp, bright, vivid images, letting you compose
a shot more easily -- even outdoors, while enabling you to change settings to best represent the
scene.
SteadyShot™ image stabilization w/ Active Mode
SteadyShot™ image stabilization with Active Mode compensates for greater degrees of camera
shake to deliver stunningly smooth video from wide angle to full telephoto shooting. In addition,
innovative 3-Way Shake-Canceling adds electronic roll stability for even smoother video capture
Face Detection with voice enhancement and noise reduction
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.
Built-in USB cable for easy file transfer/charge
The high-speed, built-in USB 2.0 cable allows for easy connection to your computer for charging
or file transfer without having to remember separate cables. It also fits conveniently into the hand
strap so it's out of the way until you need it. Charging your camcorder is faster than ever now
through the USB; for every two minutes of charge time you get one minute of recording time.

and portraits come to life by heightening mood and emphasizing certain attributes. There are
seven different effects such as partial color to make your focal point stand out, or watercolor
which looks like a painting.
