It combines a traditional rangefinder camera layout with high-end features such as a huge 2.5-inch LCD screen, 5.1 Megapixel image capture, and high speed performance thanks to the Real Imaging Processor chip. 5.1 Megapixel (2592 x 1944 Pixels)3X optical zoom lens2.5-inch LCD monitorCompact SLR design32MB flash memory built-in The W5's Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar lens provides crisp, clear visuals and a 3x optical zoom without compromising the camera's amazingly compact design. Image quality is further enhanced with such features as 5-area multi-point auto focus, auto focus illuminator and multi-pattern measuring. The W5 includes 32 Megabytes of built-in flash memory, so you'll have room for additional photographs if you are ever without a Memory Stick media. With a classic build, easy control, and numerous advanced features, the Cyber-shot W5 has something for everyone. 1/1.8-inch 5.1 Megapixel Super HAD CCD: Super HAD (Hole Accumulation Diode) CCDs provide excellent image quality by allowing more light to pass to each Pixel, increasing Sensitivity and reducing noise. 3x Optical + 2x Digital = 6x Total Zoom - Optical Zoom helps you fill the frame with your subject for better pictures. And Sony's Precision Digital Zoom helps bring your subject closer with an extra 2x magnification. 12x Smart Zoom Feature - The Smart Zoom intelligently uses the full CCD to let you zoom into the important part of the image, cropping out portions of the image of lesser interest. This avoids the image degradation typical of Digital Zooms. Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar Lens: The Vario-Tessar lens is specially produced for very compact cameras. This specialized design allows quick auto-focus, appealing Zoom range while still maintaining a compact design. Real Imaging Processor Technology: The innovative Real Imaging Processor in the DSC-W5 not only improves picture quality and clarity but also improves camera Response Time, decreases shutter lag and improves battery stamina. 2.5-inch LCD Monitor: The extra-large high-Resolution 115K LCD Monitor makes framing shots and reviewing pictures easy. Live Histogram Display: Available in capture and playback the Live Histogram Displays the concentration of Pixels at each luminosity value making it easy to evaluate correct exposure. 14-Bit DXP A/D Conversion: Sony's 14-bit Digital EXtended Processor captures the range between highlight and shadow with up to 16,384 values, for extended dynamic Contrast and detail. 5 Area Multi-Point Auto Focus: By evaluating 5 separate focus areas of the frame, Sony's Multi-Point AF system can intelligently focus on the subject and avoid mistakenly focusing on the background. Manual Exposure Mode: Manual Exposure Mode provides extended control with 46-step adjustable Shutter Speed (30-1/1000 sec.), and 2-step Aperture control. AF (Auto Focus) Illuminator: Briefly illuminating the subject, in low-or no-light conditions, the AF Illuminator helps establish a positive focus lock. Selectable Focus Mode: Monitoring AF (Auto Focus) helps you anticipate the action by focusing even before you press the shutter release. Multi-Pattern Measuring: Independently light-metering 49 points of the frame, Multi-Pattern Measuring establishes the optimum exposure, even when highlight and shadow isn't centered in the frame. Scene Selection Mode: With 7 Scene Modes, parameters can be matched to the shooting conditions. Choose from one of the following: Twilight, Twilight Portrait, Soft Snap, Landscape, Beach, Snow, Candle. Pre-Flash Metering: With a momentary pre-flash, the camera illuminates the subject and sets exposure through the lens for accurate flash metering. Adjustable flash level and Red-Eye Reduction ensure great flash shots. Slow Shutter Noise Reduction: During long exposures, Slow Shutter NR captures the scene, and then the CCD noise pattern with a dark frame exposure. By subtracting the two, even long exposures can be clear. Memory Stick Media and Memory Stick: Digital. Powerful. Transportable.
