Sony’s DSCW120B
Cyber-shot® Digital Camera with 4x optical zoom and Super Steadyshot®
Optical Image Stabilization

For beautiful photos at the push of a
button, the Cyber-shot DSC-W120 digital camera makes your memories
come to life . Delivering extraordinary shooting performance in a
compact and stylish design, the DSC-W120 is equipped with a 7.2
Megapixel Super HAD™ CCD imager and the precision-crafted Carl
Zeiss® Vario-Tessar® lens. Capture spontaneity with the Double
Anti-Blur Solution. Employing both Super SteadyShot® Optical Image
Stabilization System and High ISO 3200 Sensitivity, movements in
photos are no longer a problem. Working in tandem, these two
features reduce camera shake and sharpen fine details. Further
enhancing picture quality is the Bionz Imaging Processor. Enabling
high image resolution and fast reflex, this state-of-the-art
processor achieves crisp, clean images by improving noise reduction.
Working in conjunction with the Bionz Imaging Processor, the
DSC-W120’s Face Detection technology will optimize the photo for the
faces in your viewfinder. With Smile Shutter technology, the
DSC-W120 will recognize when those faces are smiling and snap the
best possible shot. View your digital photos directly from the LCD
screen or plug your camera into a Full HD TV for an eye-opening
experience.

Features for Sony Cybershot DSC W120

7.2 MP Super HAD™ CCD
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® 4X Optical Zoom Lens
4X optical zoom brings distant subjects closer to help you capture
sharp, detailed long shots and quickly frame images for better
composition -- great for family sports, outdoor fun, and travel
photos.
2.5”1TFT LCD Display
The large, bright 2.5”1TFT LCD (115K) display makes it easy to
compose shots, check results, and read menus in sharp natural color,
even in bright sunlight.
Face Detection
Face Detection technology automatically controls flash, focus,
exposure, and white balance to help reveal faces in shadows, make
skin tones look more natural, reduce red-eye, and eliminate harsh
facial glare. Now with adult or child priority so you can determine
who the focal point should be.
Smile Shutter Mode
Smile Shutter (TM) technology captures smiles the moment they happen
- without the need to press the shutter. The mode can be set to
capture when your subject laughs, smiles or even grins, and like
Face Detection is able to differentiate children and adults to set
priority.

Sony Double Anti-Blur Solution
The combination of Super SteadyShot® optical image stabilization and
high ISO sensitivity helps compensate for shaky hands, minimizes
blur, and allow flash-free shooting to preserve the mood.
Super SteadyShot® Optical Image
Stabilization
Compensates for shaky hands and minimizes blur with a built-in gyro
sensor that detects camera movement and sends correcting signals to
a stabilization lens -- so there’s no need to crop in on your shot
to reduce blur.
High Sensitivity (ISO 3200) Mode
With high sensitivity of ISO 3200, you can shoot effectively in low
light without flash to preserve the mood, while the Sony Clear RAW™
Noise Reduction system helps suppress the color noise that can
degrade low-light shots.
Dynamic Range Optimization
Powered by the exclusive Sony Bionz® high-speed processing engine,
Dynamic Range Optimization preserves image data in bright highlights
and reveals more detail in shadows or backlit areas -- for great
results even in difficult lighting conditions.
Convenient Photo Modes
To adjust quickly for specific shooting situations, you can choose
from several convenient photo modes, including Auto, Program Auto,
and Scene Selections such as Twilight, Twilight Portrait, Fireworks,
Smile Shutter, Landscape, Soft Snap, Snow, High Sensitivity, and
Beach environments.
MPEG Movie VX Fine Mode
Capture VGA (640 x 480) audio/video clips at a high frame rate (up
to 30 frames per second7). The maximum length of time you can shoot
continuously is about 10 minutes.

Automatic Macro Shooting
Standard Auto Focus now covers the macro focus range, eliminating
the need to manually change focus modes for close-up photography.
The Macro mode has not been eliminated, and enabling it accelerates
Auto Focus when shooting at point-blank range.
9-Point Auto Focus
Because an off-center subject can make your shot more interesting, a
9-point auto focus measures auto-focus at 9 precision points instead
of 5 -- giving you greater creative freedom to compose your image.
Smart Zoom® Feature
The Sony Smart Zoom® feature5 intelligently “crops into” the central
portion of interest in your photo, helping avoid the image
degradation of other digital zooms.
Burst Mode
You can fire off up to one hundred shots at Approx. 0.66 second
intervals (at any resolution: VGA to full resolution mode) -- a
great way to capture a child’s first steps or a pet’s best
tricks.(Approx. 1.5fps(100 shots)).
Simple Setup Controls
A quick press of the Home button opens your user-friendly graphical
interface -- and you can select functions by simply moving a cursor
vertically or horizontally to the appropriate icon. Function names
and the on-screen Function Guide display make it easier to learn
camera setup operations.
Easy Shooting Mode
A simplified camera environment especially attractive to beginners
or digital camera users who want to keep things simple, Easy
Shooting provides easy-to-read, on-screen instructions and limits
the number of camera settings to help prevent misuse of the camera
while still providing excellent results.
Function Guide
This beginner-friendly function helps manage various functions and
settings by displaying the description of chosen functions or
settings on the LCD screen. The Function Guide can also be switched
off.
Optical Viewfinder
In addition to the LCD display, a built-in optical viewfinder lets
you compose your photos in traditional rangefinder camera style, and
also helps save battery power by turning off your LCD display.

15 MB Internal Memory
Even if you forget your flash memory card, you can get the shot
because 15 MB2 internal memory lets you capture a limited number of
shots with in-camera convenience, then easily transfer your shots to
a PC or optional Memory Stick Duo™ media.
Memory Stick Duo™ Media
Convenience
A built-in slot accepts optional Memory Stick Duo™ Media or Memory
Stick PRO Duo™ Media -- the compact, high-capacity storage media
that make it easily to upload photos to your PC and are compatible
with millions of devices worldwide.
Stamina® Battery Power
Provides extended battery life and shooting capacity when using a
fully charged Lithium Ion battery-- enough to cover a long weekend
or a whole vacation.
HDTV Compatibility
High-resolution images can be enjoyed in all their beauty simply by
connecting the camera directly to a Sony BRAVIA® HDTV or other
compatible HDTV3 . This provides an excellent alternative to viewing
photos as prints or on a computer monitor, and is ideal for users
who want to share photos in the comfort of their living room.
Optional HD solutions include a Cyber-shot® cradle/charger with
component cable output, or component cable directly to your HDTV.
“PhotoTV HD"
PhotoTV HD compatibility allows the camera to be connected to a
PhotoTV HD-capable Sony BRAVIA™ HDTV via the optional HD output
adaptor, for highly detailed, high-definition color images displayed
in unprecedented realism and full HD quality.
16:9 High-Resolution Mode
In addition to the standard 2-megapixel size, the convenient 16:9
aspect ratio shooting mode for HDTV3 display can now be shot in
5-megapixels, making it possible to obtain beautiful,
high-definition prints with the same aspect ratio as HDTV3.
Wide Zoom Display
To use the entire image area of the camera’s widescreen LCD and
compatible HDTV3 screens, Wide Zoom automatically expands standard
4:3, and 3:2 images to 16:9.
Photo Music
PHOTOMUSIC combines images with music to produce fun and
entertaining slide shows with the following five visual effects
(Simple, Basic, Nostalgic, Active and Stylish). Additionally, the
number of music tracks stored in the camera memory has been doubled
from four to eight, and music playback time has been extended from
three to five minutes per track. More personalized slide shows are
also possible by transferring music from a PC to the camera.
Multi-Resizing Function

picture images can be resized to widescreen 16:9 and 2 MP resolution
for display on an HDTV. Conversely, high resolution, widescreen 16:9
images or any size picture can be resized to 4:3 size with VGA (640
x 480) resolution -- perfect for sharing with friends and family via
e-mail (internet connection required).
