TWO SLIM NEW ADDITIONS TO CYBER-SHOT S SERIES: NOW WITH ADDED FACE DETECTION
The new Cyber-shot S-Series expands with two new models that deliver great-looking pictures plus smart features without breaking the bank.
Attractively priced to appeal to entry-level photographers, the slim new Cyber-shot S780 and S750 put amazing images within everyone’s reach.
* 8.1 effective megapixels (S780) / 7.2 effective megapixels (S750)
* Face Detection adjusts exposure and focus for clearer portraits
* Large 2.5-inch LCD screen with wide viewing angle
* High Sensitivity ISO 1250 for reduced camera shake
* 3x optical zoom lens
* Slim, light new design with lithium ion battery
With a high-quality Sony 3x optical zoom lens and a high resolution of
8.1 effective megapixels, the range-topping Cyber-shot S780 produces
detail-packed images that look amazing blown up as A3 sized prints.
Even more affordably priced, the Cyber-shot S750 offers a resolution of
7.2 effective megapixels.
In an S-Series first, both cameras now feature Face Detection. This
powerful Sony-developed technology can track up to three faces in the
frame at a time, adjusting focus and exposure for clear, beautifully
exposed portraits of friends and family.
They’re also the first Cyber-shot S-Series models to use a
high-capacity Sony lithium ion battery instead of standard alkaline
cells. This ensures a thinner, lighter profile than previous S-Series
cameras. In addition, the slim-line battery takes up less space than
conventional cells when you’re carrying spares in a pocket or bag:
great when you’re away from home for longer periods and don’t want to
run out of power.
The Cyber-shot S780 and S750 let you capture clear, blur-free pictures
without the aid of flash if you’re shooting in low light or on cloudy
days. Selecting ‘High Sensitivity’ mode on the easy-to-adjust mode dial
boosts sensitivity to ISO 1250. This allows shooting at faster shutter
speeds to reduce the risk of camera shake, even with moving subjects.
A new multi-point autofocus mode ensures sharp, accurately focused
images, even when your subject is moving or isn’t in the centre of the
frame.
Pictures and camera settings can be viewed clearly on the large, high
resolution 2.5-inch LCD screen. It’s great for composing and viewing
shots as well as reading menus and camera settings. With a wide display
viewing angle, everyone can get a clearer picture of your memories,
too. Touching a button switches instantly to Playback mode, making it
quick and easy to check pictures during shooting. There’s also an
on-screen Histogram mode that displays image brightness in graphical
form – useful if you’re fine-tuning exposure settings for the best
possible results.
Digital camera newcomers will appreciate the handy display of functions
like flash, macro and self-timer settings. There’s also on-screen
advice to help you select the right settings for your chosen subject as
selected with the Shooting Mode dial.
Both cameras can even help beginners pick the optimum image size for
shooting, depending on your preferred printing paper size and the
amount of memory space remaining.
The Cyber-shot S750 and S780 will be available throughout Europe from end February and end March 2008 respectively.
