It’s all about image quality.

Deep inside Cyber-shot cameras are the three fundamental components

that deﬁne picture quality. While some camera companies can only

buy these components from outside suppliers, Sony is a primary

manufacturer — and technological innovator — in all three areas.

The power

of imaging.

At Sony, we believe images should have the power to

stir your emotions; to stop time; to remind you of the

people, places and events that you most treasure.

This belief inspires us to constantly reimagine

photography. It compels us to make fundamental

advances in the way light is shaped, captured and

transformed into digits. It drives us to develop the

extraordinary technology that sets Sony Cyber-shot®

cameras apart. This is the power of imaging.

The Lens.

Your pictures can only be as

good as the lens that gathers

and shapes light. That’s why

Cyber-shot cameras use reﬁned

Sony Lenses, Sony G Lenses

and superb Carl Zeiss®lenses.

The Processor.

Are the pictures clean and

clear? Is the camera fast and

responsive? With Sony, the

answer is yes thanks to

processors like our legendary

BIONZ®chip, a technology we

borrowed from our aDSLRs.

The Image Sensor.

Sony manufactures 30 million

image sensors. Per month.

This explains how Sony

constantly leads the way in

resolution and low-light

performance.

Technology

Never be afraid

of the dark.

Nighttime subjects too often result in dark,

blurry or fuzzy pictures. Thanks to Sony’s

Exmor® R sensors and BIONZ®processors, you

can shoot with conﬁdence.

HD Movie from

the HD experts.

No company knows more about HD than

Sony — a fact that becomes much clearer

when you experience the Full HD 1080/60p

performance available in Cyber-shot cameras.

Smarter than your

average camera.

Not sure how to pick the right operating modes?

Sony’s Superior Auto system picks for you! Quickly

and automatically, it selects the best choice from

as many as 44 different modes.

Make a

style statement.

Don’t settle for drab. With their sleek, sculptural

design and their range of elegant colors,

Cyber-shot cameras are always in fashion.

Shoot at the

speed of life.

Before the moment passes, capture sports,

backyard shenanigans or the ﬂeeting expression

of a baby. Selected Cyber-shot cameras can

shoot at up to 10 frames per second.

An invitation to

get closer.

Sony empowers you to put a 20x optical zoom

camera in your pocket. From nature to sports

to travel, it’s never been easier to ﬁll the frame

with your subject.

The Power of Imaging

The power and performance

of Sony image sensors.

The CMOS

Sensor Advantage

Sony’s CMOS sensors convert light to digital signals

using Sony’s original on the chip Column A/D

Conversion which aids in delivering images of superb

quality with extremely low noise and high speed.

Performance

Thanks to back-illuminated technology that positions

the light-sensitive photo diodes above the support

circuitry rather than below it, Sony’s Exmor® R CMOS

sensor is twice as sensitive to light as conventional

CMOS sensors. This design also contributes to a

50% noise reduction. This dramatic improvement

in sensitivity lets users enjoy cleaner and higher

deﬁnition images with less noise when shooting in

low light conditions.

18.2 Megapixels

Images

DSC-WX150, TX66, TX200V, HX10V, HX20V,

HX30V, HX200V

For resolution far beyond the ordinary, select

Cyber-shot®models incorporate a technology

called By Pixel Super Resolution. This system analyzes

the image pixel by pixel, compensates for lens

and sensor limitations, consults a rich database of

images and creates a Super Resolution output.

The result is incredible detail.

You can enjoy images of up to 18.2 megapixels,

excellent for printing high resolution photos

and zooming in on details. This is detail to rival

DSLR cameras.

Backlight

Correction HDR

Shooting high-contrast scenes can often lead to

washed out backgrounds and details getting

lost in the shadows. Backlight Correction HDR

helps alleviate this problem by taking three

pictures at different exposures and processing

the best elements of each into a single image.

Hand-held Twilight

Select this mode to capture sharp, low noise

images of low-light scenes in which there is little

subject motion. Like Anti-Motion Blur mode,

six shots are rapidly captured, but lower ISO is

prioritized over fast shutter speed. The position of

objects in all six images is analyzed and the image

data superimposed to realize a single image with

signiﬁcantly less noise and blur than otherwise

possible with hand-held low-light shooting.

Technology

Anti-Motion Blur

This mode helps capture clean, sharp images in

low-light when subjects are moving. The camera

rapidly captures six shots with high sensitivity and

fast shutter speed. The shot with the least subject

movement is selected to render those elements,

while data from all six frames are combined

for stationary elements. The result is a single

image with signiﬁcantly less noise and blur than

otherwise possible with a single low-light shot.

Technology

Carl Zeiss®Lens

DSC-W650, WX50, WX70, TX66, TX200V, TX20, HX200V

For superior sharpness, excellent contrast and color accuracy, professional

photographers depend on Carl Zeiss®lenses. That’s because they can be relied

upon to consistently maintain the resolution, contrast, illumination and color of

photos — from the center all the way to the corners. These diverse lenses offer

wide angles up to 25mm equivalent, which make it easier to get better group

shots in tight conﬁnes and focal lengths up to 870mm equivalent on the HX200V

for great shots even from far away.

G Lens

DSC-W690, WX150, H90, HX10V, HX20V, HX30V

To help you get the best shots, Sony’s G Lens covers a wide focal length

range and provides exceptional contrast and sharpness. An excellent

example is the G Lens of the Cyber-shot®DSC-HX20V which covers a broad

range from 25mm equivalent wide-angle to 500mm equivalent telephoto.

Consisting of 12 elements in 9 groups, this lens includes 4 aspherical elements

and an extra-high refractive index element to minimize chromatic aberration.

Sony’s G Lens is also capable of very high zoom functionality. DSC-HX20V offers

a high optical zoom of 20x which is excellent for use at sporting events, wildlife,

distant landscape views and dramatic portrait shots.

The better the lens,

the better the picture.

Advanced Aspherical Element

DSC-W690, WX150, HX20V, HX30V

For 2012, Sony was able to double the optical zoom ratio in lenses that are as

much as 54% thinner than last year’s. It’s an incredible feat of optical engineering,

made possible by Sony’s Advanced Aspherical (AA)lens element. By controlling

chromatic aberration on the image plane, the AA element enables the lens to

be not only substantially thinner than last year, but also up to 37% smaller in

diameter. At its center, the AA element is just 0.3 mm thick (about 1/100 inch).

Molding and shaping the element requires extraordinary precision. And that’s

exactly what Sony achieves. The result? Maximum zoom in minimum size — with

no sacriﬁce in image performance!

Highlighted in green, Sony’s Advanced Aspherical element is the

secret behind higher zoom in a thinner camera.

imagine with zoom lenses.

Optical Zoom

To accommodate different shooting situations,

pro photographers travel with lenses in a range of

focal lengths. But you can accomplish much the

same with the zoom lenses of Sony Cyber-shot

cameras. The wide angle end of the range is truly

wide, to capture the feeling of landscapes and

interiors. The middle range is great for portraits,

while the telephoto position can ﬁll the frame with

ﬁeld sports, wildlife and architectural details.

Sony digital processing converts a 30x optical

zoom into 60x, to get you that much closer to your

subject! The system starts by cropping into the

sensor and blowing up the central portion. Then

Sony’s pixel-by-pixel processing draws on a vast

database of image detail to bring your picture

up to nearly full resolution.

Sony’s Active Mode image stabilization gives you

the freedom to shoot movies even while walking

or running. 2-way Active Mode corrects for both

vertical and horizontal motion, providing up to 10x

the correction of standard mode.

Optical SteadyShot™

Image Stabilization

with 3-way Active Mode

DSC-HX20V, HX30V, HX200V

In addition to the features of the 2-way Active Mode,

3-way Active Mode adds a gyro sensor that also helps

compensate for camera “roll” or pivoting. So even if

you’re moving with the subject, the video is smooth

and stable.

Bringing it Home

Sony’s Optical SteadyShot™image stabilization with

3-way Active Mode helps eliminate excessive camera

shake from your videos — even if you’re shooting while

on the move. It’s perfect for active scenes like:

• Your kids at the park or beach

• Your latest outdoor adventure
