Sony DSC TX9:
R 2 449.00
Photographic brilliance meets pure, elegant style in the Cyber-shot
DSC-TX9 digital camera. Capture impressive landscapes with iSweep
Panorama and enjoy 3D shots as well. Sony's "Exmor R" CMOS
sensor delivers impressive clarity and crisp detail in low light and the
Superior Auto mode takes the guesswork out of choosing the right
settings. There's also an innovative Background Defocus feature and Full
HD 1080/60i AVCHD movie recording that looks great on your compatible
HDTV. Enjoy it all on an easy to view 3.5in (diag.) touch screen.
Features:
| 3D Sweep Panorama: Capture vast scenic
vistas and 16:9 shots in spectacular 3D. As you sweep across the
panorama, the camera records separate right-eye and left-eye
images that make landscapes come alive on your 3D television |
| 1080i AVCHD Movie Mode: Record movies in
1080i AVCHD/MP4 high definition at 60i. With HDMI connectivity you
may enjoy instant playback on compatible HDTV or LCD of the
camera. The AVCHD format captures a high degree of detail and
smooth movement |
| Background Defocus: DSLR photographs blur
the background, putting the emphasis on your subject. Sony's
point-and-shoot cameras can deliver this signature DSLR benefit.
The system takes two shots, identifies the background and applies
a defocused background while keeping your subject crisp and clear |
| HDMI output: The HDMI is a compact
audio/video connector interface for transmitting uncompressed
digital streams. HDMI connects digital audio/video sources to a
compatible digital audio device and/or video monitor such as a
digital television (DTV). |
| Natural Flash: Conventional point-and-shoot
camera flash shots just don't capture colors the way the eye sees
them. Natural Flash mode takes a reference shot without flash and
then uses that reference to correct the color, for far more life
like images |
| Hand held Twilight: When set to Hand held
Twilight Mode, the DSC-TX9 captures six images in a fraction of a
second with one press of the shutter and combines the data from
all six to create a single image of extraordinary detail and low
noise. |
| High Sensitivity Mode (ISO 3200): High ISO
allows for faster shutter speed, so you can take photos indoors or
in low light without the need for a flash |
| Intelligent Auto (iAuto) mode: Unlike
traditional auto mode, Intelligent Auto (iAuto) mode thinks for
you, recognizing scenes, lighting conditions, faces and adjusts
settings resulting in clearer images, faces with more natural skin
tone and less blur |
| Optical SteadyShot image stabilization:
Optical SteadyShot image stabilization uses a built-in gyro sensor
to detect camera shake and automatically shifts the lens to help
prevent blur without sacrificing image quality |
| HD MP4 Movie Mode: In 1080p MP4 movie mode
the camera shoots 1440 x 1080 high definition movies at 30fps,
which is the format when working with a PC. Users will create high
quality movies with full use of optical zoom in their Cyber-shot
DSCs in files small enough to transfer to compatible PC or Mac |
| Motion Detection, along with Face Motion
Detection adjusts ISO sensitivity and increases the shutter speed
when movement is detected, reducing blur in moving subjects and
faces |
| Thanks to Intelligent AF technology, capture
fleeting moments like a child's adorable expression with the
ultra-quick AF which locks focus in as little as 0.3-sec |
| Function Guide: This beginner-friendly
optional function helps navigate through the various functions and
settings displaying the description of chosen functions or
settings on the LCD screen. |
| In Easy Shooting Mode, easy-to-understand
basic instructions are displayed on the LCD screen and the camera
switches to all automatic settings, removing several function
choices and allowing you to focus on just your subject |
| Decorate your photos with words and drawings
using the included paint pen or your finger. Have fun using more
than 30 stamps and 15 types of picture frames and save new images
at up to 5 megapixel resolution |
| For convenient storage and sharing of your
images, the DSC-TX9 accepts Memory Stick Duo/Memory Stick PRO
Duo/Memory Stick PRO-HG Duo media (sold separately) and
SD/SDHC/SDXC media (sold separately) |
| Capture expansive landscapes with
Intelligent Sweep Panorama Mode. Press shutter and sweep and the
camera does the rest, continuously, shooting images and in one
second stitching them together |
| 3.5in Xtra Fine LCD touchscreen display with
TruBlack technology: A large 3.5" Xtra Fine LCD touchscreen
display with TruBlack technology (921K pixels), the largest of
Sony's Cyber-shot DSC line makes it easy for viewing and sharing
images with simple and fun touch screen operation |
| The DSC-TX9 can capture full 10.2 megapixels
resolution images at up to 10 frames per second, helping to ensure
that you capture the decisive moment such as the soccer ball
flying into the goal |
| Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar Lens with 25mm
equivalent wide 4x Optical Zoom: This high-performance lens brings
distant subjects closer for video recording as well as for
outdoor, sports and travel photos and Close Focus shoots close-ups
up to just under 0.5in from the subject |
| DVDirect DVD Recorder Compatible: With AVCHD
capabilities the DSC-TX9 is compatible with the select DVDirect
DVD recorders, allowing playback of high definition footage |
| With pre-installed Sony PMB Portable
software , the DSC-TX9 makes it easy to pre-select images in the
camera and conveniently upload them from the camera to a
compatible PC and popular Internet sharing sites without the need
for any additional software or install |
| To use the entire image area of your
compatible HDTV screen, Wide Zoom display automatically expands
standard 4:3 and 3:2 images to 16:9 |
| Express yourself and personalize your camera
with your choice of black, white or pink background colors for the
on-screen menus |
| Included lithium-ion battery provides added
convenience with longer lasting power than alkaline batteries
(capacity of 115 minutes or 230 images when viewing still images) |
