Product description
In photography, timing is everything. With the ultra-fast, 10-shots-per-second speed of the Cyber-shot DSC-HX1, it's easy to capture a swinging bat just before it hits the ball. Remarkable Exmor" CMOS technology even makes it easy to capture photos in low light while maintaining smooth color gradation and crisp detail. Especially useful for beautiful landscape shots or shooting skyscrapers, the Sweep Panorama mode takes seamless 224-degree shots with breathtaking 9.1 megapixel results? just press the shutter and sweep in a horizontal or vertical direction. And don't miss the 20x optical zoom or the Intelligent Auto mode that eliminates the guesswork by automatically adjusting camera settings for you. Got a shaky hand? Optical SteadyShot image stabilization has you covered by reducing blur for sharp, lifelike images.
Product features
  • 9.1 megapixel Super Exmor CMOS image sensor
    The HX1 features a 9.1 megapixel Exmor CMOS image sensor that brings out the full resolving power of the camera's precision G-Lens to deliver extremely fast speed, high resolution, and stunning low-light sensitivity with improved image clarity and drastically reduced noise. With 9.1 megapixels, you can create stunning, photo-quality prints up to A3+ size, or crop your images and still come away with high resolution shots.
  • BIONZ image processor
    Recognized by photographers around the world, the name Carl Zeiss is synonymous with quality optics. Outstanding image definition and critical quality control have contributed to the sterling reputation these lenses have acquired over the years.
  • Professional quality G-lens
    Designed and manufactured to the highest standards of optical performance, the Sony G-Lens is optimized to perfectly complement the advanced image sensors and image processing technology in Sony's cameras. G lenses are used in top of the line digital single lens reflex (DSLR) cameras and advanced pro-sumer HD Camcorders. Capture the action up close with the 20x optical zoom, and with the 28mm wide angle lens the HX1 even allows you to capture more of the scenes in landscape or group portraits. The HX1's G Lens has a six blade aperture capable of producing a beautiful bokeh (beautifully defocused backgrounds with a soft natural feel). The aspherical lens elements made from ED (extra-low dispersion) minimize chromatic aberration common to high-magnification lenses.
  • Dynamic range optimizer standard and plus
    Dynamic Range Optimizer (DRO) Standard and Plus uses a sophisticated algorithm to determine the best exposure and contrast settings for almost any shooting environment. The result is more natural images with clearer details that more closely match what your naked eye sees. DRO is particularly effective when shooting backlit portraits or any scene with a dramatic contrast between background and foreground lighting. DRO Plus allows for even greater optimization by analyzing each region of an image and performing additional image processing.
  • 28mm wide angle lens
    A 28mm wide angle lens shows more of the scene you're shooting, helping you capture more complete images when shooting indoor group portraits, expansive landscapes, or architectural scenes.
  • Extend your reach with 20x optical zoom
    Enjoy the breathtaking quality of 10x optical zoom in a slim, compact camera. Smooth, seamless zooming from 1x to 57x expands your photographic possibilities. You can capture magnificent scenes at the 1x setting, zoom closer with perfect clarity using 10x optical zoom, attain 19x zooming at high-definition quality with HD Smart Zoom (16:9) or focus on minute details like faraway flowers with 57x Smart Zoom (VGA). Whether you're photographing natural scenes or capturing the facial expressions of distant loved ones, the DSC-HX1's powerful zooming capabilities let you make the most of memorable shutter opportunities.
  • Optical SteadyShot
    Enjoy clearer, sharper photos than ever before with Sony's original Optical SteadyShot image stabilizer. This intelligent function automatically reduces camera shake blur, a common problem when shooting in low-light environments without a tripod. If a built-in gyro sensor detects camera shake, a special shift lens corrects it to effectively reduce image blur. The results are crisp, razor sharp photos even in dim or poorly lit rooms.
  • Face detection technology
    Face detection technology detects up to eight individual faces and controls flash, focus, exposure, and white balance to deliver accurate, natural skin tones with reduced red-eye. It can also give priority to children or adults. Newly added Face Motion Detection adjusts ISO sensitivity and accelerates the shutter speed when facial movement is detected, reducing blur in the subjects face.
  • Smile Shutter technology
    The popular Smile Shutter technology automatically detects and captures a smiling face. Simply activate by pressing the Smile Shutter button and the camera will capture a smile the moment it happens. You can also select subject priority (Adult or Child Priority or using the cross key buttons on the camera) and indicate the degree of Smile Detection Sensitivity to high (small smile), medium (laugh) or low (grin). Great substitute of self timer, smile once all are ready and the camera will capture the smile.
  • Intelligent Scene Recognition
    Intelligent Scene Recognition (iSCN) mode automatically detects eight different types of scenes conditions (Backlight, Backlight Portrait, Twilight, Twilight Portrait, Twilight using a Tripod, Portrait, Landscape, and Macro) and within 1/30th of a second selects the appropriate camera settings:. iSCN has 2 modes: Auto and Advanced. In Auto Mode, the camera takes a single shot using the optimal settings. In Advance Mode, the camera takes a photo with the standard automatic settings and, in difficult lighting (low light or back light) immediately takes a second photo with optimized setting so you can choose which to keep.
