Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-S90 Digital Camera Features
1/2.7" 4.1 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 3X Optical Zoom helps you frame your shots for better digital pictures. And Sony’s Precision Digital Zoom provides an additional 2X magnification without the jagged edges of other designs, resulting in smoother images.
0 – 10X Smart Zoom™ Feature (at VGA Resolution) The Smart Zoom feature intelligently uses the full CCD to let you zoom into the portion of interest by cropping the image size–thus avoiding the image degradation 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-S90 not only improves picture quality and clarity but also improves camera response time, decreases shutter lag and improves battery stamina.
Optical Viewfinder Provides accurate framing at eye level, great for added stability and following fast moving subjects.
2.5" LCD Monitor The 2.5" 115K LCD Monitor makes framing shots and reviewing pictures easy.
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, and 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 PRO™ Media Digital. Powerful. Transportable.™ Memory Stick® media is compact, portable and rugged—connecting a variety of hardware and software applications.
32 MB Internal Memory Included Shoot without a flash memory card with 32 MB internal memory; Slot for optional Memory Stick®, Memory Stick PRO™ media. Full 32MB of internal memory can be copied to optional Memory Stick media.
4 Shot Burst Mode Capture up to 4 shots at full 4MP resolution at 0.7 frames/sec. Perfect for high speed subjects or fast moving action such as sports or small children.
MPEG Movie VX Standard/Fine Mode with Audio Captures VGA (640 x 480) high frame rate (up to 30 frames per second) audio/video clips with length limited only by the capacity of the media. Video mail mode captures smaller file sizes suitable for email.
Conversion Lens Compatible Conversion Lens Compatible with VAD-PEB adaptor, you can add telephoto or wide-angle conversion lenses for greater magnification or wider field of view, as well as protective and special effect filters.
Cyber-shot Station Dock Compatible Make transferring images and recharging the DSC-S90’s battery easier with the optional Cyber-shot Station camera dock. Just place the camera on the cradle for instantaneous power and computer connections.
Audio/Video Output (via multi-use terminal) Display images or MPEG movies with audio on a TV (with A/V input) for everyone to enjoy.
Rechargeable AA NiMH Batteries The supplied high capacity 2100 mAh AA NiMH batteries provide reliable, long-lasting power for continuous shooting. The supplied BC-CS2 charger provides a convenient way to charge the batteries.
